چکیده

The design and hardware implementation of a multi-carrier Gaussian minimum shift keying (GMSK) modulator, based on a direct digital synthesizer, suitable for global system for mobile (GSM) base station applications is described. The synthesizer does not only generate the baseband GMSK signal, but also delivers it at a low IF. Special care has been taken in order to minimize the required memory of the synthesizer. The hardware implementation is mainly based on a field programmable gate array device (FPGA) and a D/A converter. The number of carriers depends on the size of the FPGA. Finally, the hardware implementation of a two-carrier modulator is given. Copyright q 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

15.2 Threshold Detection Performance of GMSK Signal with BT=0.5

This paper considers the detection performance of a serial thresholding receiver for preceded bina~ GMSK signal with BT=O. 5. The conditional symbol (biij error probability of the GMSK signal with carrier phase and timing errors is derived and compared to that of unfiltered BPSK. It is shown that the GMSK signal has practically the same performance as the ideal BPSK signal in the absence of syn...

FPGA Implementation of High Throughput Digital QPSK Modulator using Verilog HDL

This paper proposes a Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) using two different methods. QPSK is one of the forms of Phase Shift Keying (PSK) modulation scheme. Generally a conventional QPSK modulator with Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) and arithmetic multiplier separates base band signal into I and Q phase which consumes low throughput with complexity in hardware implementation. Hence to gene...

A Multicarrier GMSK Modulator With On-Chip D/A Converter for Base Stations

A multicarrier Gaussian minimum shift keying (GMSK) modulator with a 14-bit on-chip digital-to-analog (D/A) converter is presented. The design contains four GMSK modulators, which generate GMSK modulated carriers at the user-defined center frequencies. In wireless base stations, the modulated transmit signals are usually combined at the RF frequency after power amplification. The multicarrier m...

Quadrature delta sigma modular design with adjustable bandwidth and center frequency

In this paper, a flexible Continuous time (CT) feedforward (FF) quadrature delta sigma modulator (QDSM) with variable bandwidth (BW) is proposed. The modulator BW and center frequency (fc) are variable which can be adjusted with two separate parameters. The modulator signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) will be optimized by these parameters at every center frequency and bandwidth. The modulator BW is ch...

Investigation of Effect of Accumulation Layer Thickness of ENZ material on Electro-Absorption Modulator

In this paper, the performance of an optical modulator based on indium tin oxide is investigated at telecommunication wavelength for different accumulation thickness. The plan of metal-oxide-semiconductor is utilized to change the carrier concentration at indium tin oxide-hafnium oxide interface. An optical mode solver based finite element method has been used to calculate the basic parameters ...
