METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING CONVOLUTIONALLY CODED DATA FOR USE WITH COMBINED BINARY PHASE SHIFT KEYING (BPSK) MODULATION AND PULSE POSITION MODULATION (PPM)

摘要

The invention describes a method and apparatus for transmitting data using a convolutional code used with a combination of Pulse Position Modulation and Binary Phase Shift Keying which has error rate performance that is as good as the best convolutional code when used with the more common binary phase shift keying (BPSK).
