function [ber numBits] = bersim(EbNo, maxNumErrs, maxNumBits)
%BERSIM Baseband QPSK simulation example for BERTool
%
%   BERSIM demonstrates how to simulate modulation using a complex baseband
%   equivalent representation of the signal modulated on a carrier. It also
%   shows demodulation and detection of the signal in the presence of
%   additive white Gaussian noise for quaternary phase shift keying (QPSK).
%   EbNo is a scalar that represents the bit energy to noise power spectral
%   density ratio (in dB) of the channel. The simulation runs until either
%   the number of errors equals or exceeds 'maxNumErrs', or the simulated
%   number of bits reaches 'maxNumBits'. The function returns the bit error
%   rate and the actual number of bits simulated.
%
%   BERSIM serves as a simple example of how to write a MATLAB simulation
%   function for BERTool.
