Abstract
Abstract A method for transmitting digital data by means of continuous phase modulation (CPM), wherein the transmission signal s(t) is generated by retrieving stored digital values, which are allocated to a continuous sequence of symbols a i present at the transmitter input, from storage in a memory. In contrast to the conventional method, these stored digital values are not calculated from a predetermined frequency-base-band pulse g(t) by linear superposition but are optimized with respect to the in-band power emitted by means of an iterative method. This non-linear method leads to distinctly improved spectral characteristics of the transmission signal s(t).
