ABSTRACT:
A low-bit-rate, low-cost, all-digital preambleless demodulator for maritime and mobile data communications operates under severe high noise conditions, fast Doppler frequency shifts, large frequency offsets, and multipath fading. Sophisticated algorithms, including an FFT-based burst acquisition system, a cycle-slip resistant carrier phase tracker, an innovative Doppler tracker, and a fast acquisition symbol synchronizer, provide reliable burst reception. The compact DSP-based demodulator includes an input buffer receiving a complex sampled baseband input signal and providing a baseband output to a coarse frequency estimator fast Fourier transform (FFT) or discrete Fourier transform (DFT) module which produces a first estimation of the carrier frequency. A fine frequency estimator FFT or DFT module receives the first estimation and provides a second estimation of the carrier frequency. An extra coarse frequency estimator FFT or DFT module may be provided between the buffer and the coarse frequency estimator.
