Do you have the Communications System Toolbox?
See the help for qfuncinv.m
If you don't have the CST, you can use erfcinv.m
x = [0.5000 0.1587 0.0228];
y = sqrt(2) * erfcinv(2*x);

my dear i mean the inverse of this equation :
Q_m(a,b) = 1/a^(m-1) * integral from b to inf of
[x^m * exp(-(x^2+a^2)/2) * I_(m-1)(ax)] dx,
where I_(m-1)() is the modified Bessel function of the first kind, of
order m-1.
