In the basic GMSK, the modulated signals are generated by the preprocessing of NRZ pulse trains with the gaussian low pass filter. In this paper, we proposed the GMSK modulation system with the delta pulse trains. The proposed system constructed with the gaussian pulse generator triggered by the bipolar delta pulse, the differentiator between $+T_b/2$ and $-T_b/2$, and then a matched filter for frequency-modulation function. The spectrum of proposed system was found to be smaller than about 35[%] at 40[dB] attenuated bandwidth, and the center spectrum to be lower than the basic GMSK with zero-crossing property.

The transmitter of quadrature multiplexed GMSK (QM-GMSK) is composed of two quadrature multiplexed GMSK modulators. QM-GMSK has a slightly increased spectrum main lobe compared with $Q^2PSK$ or QMSK, but it has highly suppressed side lobes. As a result, practical spectrum efficiency of QM-GMSK is achieved. By replacing the baseband elementary pulses of QM-GMSK with their approximate, the squared sinusoid of half-period, offset-$Q^2PSK$($OQ^2PSK$) is obtained. The $OQ^2PSK$ signal has similar spectral properties to QM-GMSK. The transmitter of $OQ^2PSK$ can be simply implemented without the Gaussian lowpass filter, which is required in QM-GMSK transmitter. In this paper, we propose an overlapped pulse shaping in $OQ^2PSK$ with RC(raised-cosine) or SRC(squared raised-cosine) pulses of length longer than the symbol period. Power spectrum of the proposed modulation scheme exhibits further suppressed side lobes, hence enhanced spectrum efficiency is obtained. Simulation results indicate that BER performance of the proposed scheme is comparable to that of $OQ^2PSK$.

The delta driven GMSK is a modulation scheme to generate the gaussian pulse by the bipolar delta signal and to modulate the phase function with the differential gaussian pulse between $+T_b/2$ and $-T_b/2$. The demodulation of delta driven GMSK differs from conventional GMSK schemes. This paper proposed a demodulation with the differential phase detector at the end of each bit interval. A designed detector then finds the one of the possible region by hard decision, in which the phase difference lies. Finally the binary data can be recovered by state transition process. Through the BER simulation for AWGN channel, it was found that the proposed demodulation effected by the run length of binary data. The simulated BER degradation of about 2[dB] was analyzed, as compared to the theoretical coherent demodulation with $BT_b$=0.3.

In this paper, we investigated bit error probabilities of GMSK, which is known to be one of promising modulation techniques for a digital mobile radio, under various mobile radio environments.: AWGN, slow Rayleigh fading channel, co-channel interference and adjacent channel interference. We employed an MSK-type receiver for a coherent detection and assumed degrading to both signals than adjacent channel interference. Especially, it is found that GMSK suffers more degradations than MSK from the co-channel interference. But with a high power adjacent channel interference, GMSK shows less bit error rate than MSK. The results confirm a higher spectrum efficiency of GMSK.

In this paper, the relationship between k consecutive outputs of the conventional differential detector and output of differential detector with k-bit delayer MSK and GMSK signal, using a k-bit delay circuit, is the product of k successive output of the conventional differential detector. This relationships are used to generalize the structure of receiver which was proposed by Makrakis using 2-bit delay line. The error rate performance of the proposed method is carried out by computer simulation and significant performance improvement is achieved for differential MSK and GMSK system.

We propose the improved GMSK (gaussian-filtered minimum shift keying) quadrature modulator using the FIR(finite impulse response )filter whose coefficients are obtained form the differnce of phase response, and design its ASIC (applicaton specific integrated circuit) which can be used for GSM (global system for mobile communication) digital cellular system and DCS 1800 (digital cellular system at 1800MHz) personal communication system. Input data become quantized I and Q channel 10 bit signal through cosine and sine ROM mapping after being filtered by the FIR filter whose normalized bandwidth is 0.3 and designed by considering intersymbol interference as well as sampling ratio. These two signals become the GMSK modulated I and Q channel signal through DAC (digital-to-analog converter) and 7th order analog chebyshev LPF(low pass filter) respectively. The difference between the ideal analog signal and its digitized signal is analyzed in terms of sampling noise, quantization noise, truncation noise and coefficient noise. And the effect of the LPF following the DAC is considered. The ASIC design of the GMSK quadrature modulator is also confirmed by an experiment.

The symbol rate which is the main feature of NRZ information signal is detected by DAM (Delay-And-Multiplier) receiver. It is important for secure communication to reduce the normalized output SNR which is calculated at the DAM output as a measure of detectability. In this paper, we use the signal which is modulated by the class of MSK modulation schemes as the input signal of the DAM receiver for analyzing LPI performance and the GMSK(BT=0.3) used in GSM system is highlighted. Consequently, GMSK which has better bandwidth efficiency than other modulation schemes(BPSK, QPSK, OQPSK, and MSK) has better LPI performance compared with other ones. To compare the performances of each modulation scheme fairly, the transmitted powers of each system are set to be same within useful bandwidth.

In this paper, the effects of Intersymbol Interference(ISI) of Gaussian filtered minimum shift Keying (GMSK) with two-bit differential defection on the probability of error is analyzed theoretically in fast Rayleigh fading characterizing land mobile radio channels and a closed form for the probability of error is derived. Numerical results are presented for cased of interest, BT=0.25 to 0.4, taking fading rate $f_\rho$T as a parameter. It is shown that the probability of error taking the ISI of the only one adjacent bit into consideration is accurate enough to evaluate the performance of GMSK with two-bit differential detetion.

The Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK) modulation technique belongs to the class of nonlinear modulation technique, and it is known to be bandwidth efficient. The GMSK modulation is chosen for the digital cellular phone standard by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). In this paper, an efficient method for implementing all digital GMSK modulator is introduced. The proposed modulator is shown to be simple to implement as well as satisfying the required spectral shape recommended by the ETSI.
