Multi-h CPM Synchronization in Military Channels Phase 2: A Simulation Framework

Abstract

Continuous phase modulation (CPM) is a well-established signaling technology that attains spectral efficiency by smoothing the phase signal. The spectral efficiency of CPM makes it a natural candidate for communications where bandwidth is limited, such as the non-SATCOM channels in the littoral environments. However, CPM receivers require synchronization with respect to data, timing, phase, and frequency. Research on various CPM synchronizers has been undertaken at Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR). This report sets out a simulation framework that allows these synchronizers to be swapped in and out of a CPM receiver model to assess performance in a credible end-to-end RF simulation.
