Digital Modulation Techniques

This single volume covers the historical background of digital modulation, and examines operation principles, symbol and bit error performance, and spectral characteristics. It also includes block diagrams and/or circuits of modulators, demodulators, carrier recovery, clock recovery and comparison with other schemes. And in its comprehensive overview of digital modulation applications, this book provides you a practical understanding of conventional, fixed microwave terrestrial communications, satellite communications, mobile wireless, and mobile Frequency Shift Keying.

For each modulation scheme,the following topics are covered:

• Phase Shift Keying
  
• Minimum Shift Keying
  
• Continuous Phase Modulation
  
• Multi-H Phase Shift Keying
  
• Quadrature Amplitude Modulation
  
• Nonconstant-Envelope Bandwidth-Efficient Modulations
