HARDWARE PERFORMANCE FOR BINARY GMSK WITH BT=1/5

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 25-28, 1999 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, NevadaThe design, implementation, and performance of a digital modem employing Gaussian minimum shift keying (GMSK) is described. The GMSK modem is implemented in field programmable gate array (FPGA) chips, and a laboratory test setup was developed to validate its performance for a signal BT value of 1/5. The measured spectrum of the GMSK modem and its bit error rate (BER) performance, which are found in very close agreement with those of theory and simulation, are presented in this paper.International Foundation for TelemeteringProceedings from the International Telemetering Conference are made available by the International Foundation for Telemetering and the University of Arizona Libraries.
