Constant Envelope and Coded Modulation for Terrestrial and Satellite Radio. Modems for portable radio terminals must take advantage of state-of-the-art digital communications in order to stay commercially competitive. In particular they need to utilize less bandwidth and power for a fixed data rate. The approach here is to employ a parallel configuration of highly efficient error control codes, together with bandwidth efficient continuous phase modulation (CPM). The theoretical performance of su ....Constant Envelope and Coded Modulation for Terrestrial and Satellite Radio. Modems for portable radio terminals must take advantage of state-of-the-art digital communications in order to stay commercially competitive. In particular they need to utilize less bandwidth and power for a fixed data rate. The approach here is to employ a parallel configuration of highly efficient error control codes, together with bandwidth efficient continuous phase modulation (CPM). The theoretical performance of such a system is to be investigated using a novel information-theoretic technique, and the system will be optimised in terms of coding scheme and CPM complexity.Read moreRead less
