Evaluation of Continuous-Phase Frequency-Shift Keying Schemes for a Gigabit WLAN

Abstract:This report contains a study on continuous-phase frequency-shift keying (CPFSK) based transmission for Gigabit WLANs in millimeter-wave bands. The error rate performance of CPFSK signals in combination with noncoherent receivers and their bandwidth consumption are investigated. Based on the obtained results, adequate transmission schemes for achieving up to 4 Gbit/s while using at most 3 GHz of bandwidth are identified.
