Abstract:
A procedure is presented for calculating the power spectrum of the class of digital continuous-phase signals known as multi-hphase codes. These signals have been shown to have attractive power advantages over other uncoded digital schemes such as QPSK, and represent a bandwidth-efficient alternative to other coding. techniques. The method is general, handlingM-ary signaling, various frequency pulse shapes, and arbitrary sets of modulation indices. Numerical results are shown for several specific codes. In addition, the issue of spectral lines is resolved, and simple spectral approximations are developed.
