Hardware Performance for Binary Gmsk With Bt=1/5

摘要

The design, implementation, and performance of a digital modem employing Gaussian minimum shift keying (GMSK) is described. The GMSK modem is implemented in field programmable gate array (FPGA) chips, and a laboratory test setup was developed to validate its performance for a signal BT value of 1/5. The measured spectrum of the GMSK modem and its bit error rate (BER) performance, which are found in very close agreement with those of theory and simulation, are presented i nthis paper.
