Frequency-offset insensitive digital modem techniques

摘要

Conventional DPSK systems are adversely affected by transmitter/receiver frequency offsets due to frequency reference errors and Doppler shifts. Two DPSK modem concepts are presented which avoid the long frequency acquisition process of conventional DPSK. One technique involves a modified demodulator for conventional DPSK signals, while the other involves making minor changes to both the modulator and demodulator. Simulation results are provided showing performance relative to conventional DPSK.
