Signal quality in received wireless signals in the phase domain of shift keying demodulation

Abstract:

Technologies directed to improving signal quality in received wireless signals in the phase domain of shift keying demodulation are described. One method receives digital data, the digital data including a systematic error as a linear function of residual carrier frequency offset and phase noise (PN). The method extracts first phase data from the digital data, determines, in a phase domain, an estimate of the systematic error using historical phase error data of additional digital data received prior to the digital data, and generate second phase data by subtracting the estimate from the first phase data. The method determines a set of symbols from the second phase data and generates a bit sequence of a data packet from the set of symbols.
