Quadrature vestigial sideband digital communications method

摘要

A quadrature vestigial sideband (QVSB) communication system provide bandwidth efficient data transmission using cross coupled data signaling during both transmit and receive having controlled intersymbol interference. The QVSB modem includes cross coupled arm transmit and receive data filtering on both of the I&Q channels providing a bandwidth efficient QVSB spectra. A quadrature crosstalk maximum likelihood sequence estimator implements a Viterbi decoding algorithm for providing estimated data sequence outputs. The receiver is a coherently aided demodulator synchronized by a synchronization loop providing time and phase references using the estimated data sequence outputs.
