Combined frequency and differential phase shift keying with non-coherent detection in a satellite mobile channel

We analyze the performance of combined binary frequency and M-ary differential phase shift keying (2FSK/MDPSK) in the satellite mobile channel (SMC). We use two detectors in which the frequency symbol is detected by a limiter discriminator detector (LDD) and the phase symbol by a differential phase detector (DPD). It is shown that this system is power and bandwidth efficient when compared with other systems with constant envelope (or nearly constant envelope) and noncoherent detection like L-ary DPSK (LDPSK), Gaussian minimum shift keying (GMSK) and MSK.<
