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 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.

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 underwater wireless communication, needs for long distance communication using the high frequency are surpassing ones of short range communication by ultrasonic wave, and demands for transmitting and receiving various data such as voice or high resolution image data are increasing as well. In this work, we studied the effects on the real underwater communication depending on the difference of digital modulation methods. Simulation shows that only the performance of GMSK among many other PSK based modulation schemes(BPSK, QPSK, MSK, GMSK) is significant. Test condition simulates the oceanographic conditions along the 207-survey line, 15Km south of Busan and SNR is maintained 35dB or below. Simulated tests are composed of both transmitting image data($3{\times}10^5$ pixel, 4 bit per pixel) and voice communication($10^{-2}$BER, channel capacity of 1Kbps). Test results show that there are gain of about 7 seconds in transmission time in image transmission case, where channel capacity for BPSK, QPSK, and MSK and for GMSK were 65 Kbps and 45 Kbps, respectively and gain of about 8Km in distances in voice communication case.

$GQ^2PSK$ which is a novel digital mobile communication modulation scheme has been introduced and described. $GQ^2PSK$ is a modulation scheme that bandlimits NRZ digital data with Gaussian filter and modulates it by $Q^2PSK$ scheme which uses two shaping pulses and two carriers which are pairwise quadrature. Thus transmission bit rate can be enhanced and available signal space dimensions are more efficiently utilized, with comparison to the already-existing GMSK, QPSK and OQPSK modulation methods. Via the computer simulation, bit error rate of $GQ^2PSK$ scheme which is bandlimited by gaussian filter to be suitable for digital mobil communication, is lower than that of $Q^2PSK$ by 1.4[dB] in case that the signal-to-noise ration is 0[dB], but we have confirmed that $GQ^2PSK$ modulation scheme is approximately equivalent to the GMSK in the respect of power efficiency, and transmission efficiency of $GQ^2PSK$ is improved to 1.5 times than that of GMSK.

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.

본 논문에서는 계산이 간단한 두 가지의 GMSK (Gaussian minimum shift-keying) 변조기들을 제안한다. 제안된 방법들에서는 필터링과 적분과정의 순차적인 처리 대신에, 필터링되는 데이터 계열들에 따른 적분기 출력에서의 위상 성분들을 미리 구하고, ROM (read only memory)에 저장함으로써 계산량을 크게 줄일 수 있다. 첫 번째 방법에서는 필터링되는 심벌들에 따른 각 샘플시점에서의 위상 변화량들이 미리 계산되며, 위상 샘플 값은 필터에 입력되는 데이터 계열에 의한 샘플시점에서의 총 위상 변화량을 구하여 누적함으로써 얻어진다. 두 번째 방법에서는 입력되는 모든 가능한 데이터 계열들에 따른 모든 샘플시점에서의 총 위상 변화량들을 미리 구하여 ROM에 저장하며, 위상 샘플 값은 입력되는 데이터 계열에 따라 샘플시점에 해당하는 총 위상 변화량을 선택하여 누적함으로써 얻어진다. 또한, 두 번째 방법에서는 데이터 계열의 패턴에 따른 총 위상 변화량들의 대칭적인 성질을 이용함으로써 필요한 메모리량을 줄일 수 있다.

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.
