Abstract

In this paper we propose a reconfigurable multiple bit differential detection (MBDD) algorithm with diversity reception in the form of postdetection equal-gain combining (EGC) that can be used for the differential phase shift keying (DPSK) signal reception in the presence of significant frequency offsets. The proposed algorithm is based on the MBDD algorithm with the introduction of a mechanism for the estimation of the frequency offset. The algorithm is checking N c frequency offsets around zero offset and chooses the one that is the most likely. The analysis shows that the receiver with the proposed algorithm provides signal reception with almost equal quality in a wide range of carrier frequency offsets around zero frequency offset.
