The present disclosure provides Radio Frequency (RF) drive level control systems and methods for an Electro-Optic (EO) M-ary Phase-Shift Keying (M-PSK) phase modulator. Specifically, an M-PSK drive waveform is tightly controlled for maximum symmetry in the associated constellation. In an exemplary embodiment, the present disclosure includes an M-PSK transmitter, an M-PSK electro-optic phase modulator, and phase modulation method that each control RF drive level based upon a carrier suppression ratio defined as a measure of ratio of a modulated time-averaged E-field to the magnitude of the E-field. In an exemplary embodiment, the carrier suppression ratio is measured based on a modulation depth measurement.

A digital pulse shaping and phase modulation network is used for reducing out-of-band spectral energy. This network is used in conjunction with a NCO (numerically controlled oscillator) which includes a linear phase input port. This circuit converts rectangular data pulses into a user programmed shape. The shape pulses are then modulated onto the carrier via the linear phase port. Depending on the preprogrammed pulse shape, the out-of-band spectral energy is significantly reduced.

摘要:
A communication system and method for continuous phase modulation providing for transmission of a phase-modulated carrier having a phaseform representative of concurrently transmitted symbols. The phaseform of the phase-modulated signal is a sum of shift bi-orthogonal functions, each term in that sum being weighted by one of the overlapping symbols. The communication system and method provide full-response demodulation for the recovery of a particular symbol from among the concurrently transmitted symbols by selecting a receiving filter function shift bi-orthogonal to the transmitter filter function corresponding to the particular symbol. The communication system and method then provide for nulling, by integration over a time interval during which the particular symbol is transmitted, those transmitter filter functions that do not correspond to the particular symbol. This results in the separation of the particular symbol from the other concurrently transmitted symbols.

A digital modulator in which symbols representing bits are encoded and assigned to respective points of constellation of points representing the modulation scheme. The quadrature components of a vector representing each of the constellation points are contained in a truth table (14) in which the columns comprise the respective constellation points and the rows comprise the relative in-phase and quadrature component values. In response to the assignment of a symbol to a constellation point the appropriate column in the truth table is read out in parallel as a binary word and the bits of the word are applied to respective first stages (S10) of a plurality of shift registers (SR1 to SR8) which store the histories of the respective component values for the previous (N-1) symbols. Outputs of each of the stages (S1 to S10) of each shift register are applied as an address to a look-up table (16) storing the filter response sequences to all combinations of N bits to obtain weighted filter response sequences representative of the particular combination of bits currently stored in the stages (S1 to S 10) of each shift register (SR1 to SR8). The in-phase and quadrature phase weighted filter response sequences are combined and converted to analogue signals which are applied to a respective frequency up-conversion stage (18,20).

A differential phase shift keying (DPSK) modulator utilizes time-domain filtering techniques. The DPSK modulator includes a data scrambler which receives a serial digital data input signal and generates an output signal representing the dibit value of the serial input sequence. The dibit signal is differentially encoded and then provided to a history generator which produces phase modulating vectors utilizing pulse density modulation (PDM). The carrier waveform is then modulated utilizing the modulating vectors to generate a DPSK output signal.
摘要:
A candidate arbitrary-phase spread spectrum modulation technique that offers similar performance to spread continuous phase modulation (CPM) waveforms and additional capabilities for programming a chosen frequency domain spectra into the resulting spread spectrum signal. The proposed chaotic-FSK waveform is derived from high-order sequence-based spread spectrum signals, with multi-bit resolution chaos-based sequences defining incremental phase words, enabling real-time efficient generation of practically non-repeating waveforms. A result of the C-FSK formulation is a parameterized hybrid modulation capable of acting like a traditional sequence-based spread spectrum signal or a traditional frequency shift keying signal depending on chosen parameters. As such, adaptation in this modulation may be easily implemented as a time-varying evolution, increasing the security of the waveform while retaining many efficiently implementable receiver design characteristics of traditional PSK modulations.

摘要:
The present invention provides a modulator/generator circuit which includes the following features: a 1200 baud 4-phase differential phase shift keying (DPSK) modulator, a 300 baud frequency shift keying (FSK) modulator, a dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) generator and 2100/2225 Hz answer tone generators. The DPSK modulator utilizes time-domain filtering techniques. It includes a spectrum controller that shapes the in-band frequency spectrum and attenuates the adjacent channel frequency components to eliminate the conventional requirement of band-pass filters after the modulator. The FSK modulator also utilizes a spectrum controller which, during each data transition, sends out six intermediate frequencies to smooth the frequency changeover. DTMF generation is accomplished by multiplexing two sine-wave counters into a DPSK sinewave look-up ROM. By varying the duty cycle of the multiplexing control signal, the DTMF generator provides a digital pre-emphasis function that boosts the amplitude of the high-band frequencies as referenced to the low-band frequencies. The answer tone section of the circuit is accomplished by sharing portions of the FSK section since the two tones are embedded in the FSK frequencies. A digital DAC is provided for converting the modulated signal (parallel) to a serial bit stream. The modulated signal in analog form is available after a low cost low pass filter.
