An Algebraic Receiver for Full Response CPM
Aline O. Neves, Mamadou Mboup, Michel Fliess · 2006
Abstract—This paper proposes a new algebraic demodulation method for full response CPM signals in AWGN channel. The method is based in a new estimation/identification theory that has also already been used for channel identification and signal deconvolution. The signals and noise are considered to be deterministic and we find an explicit formula for the recovery of the transmitted symbols. Based on this formula, the symbols are recovered blindly, needing only the knowledge of the modulation index. The method is not only simple and robust to noise, but also very fast, what enables its implementation on-line. It can also be equally used for coherent or non-coherent demodulations. The method is applied to the CPFSK and LRC families of signals showing good results. Index Terms—CPM blind demodulation, algebraic methods, continuous-time signal, deterministic signals I.
