Abstract
A method includes obtaining an in-phase (I) input signal and a quadrature (Q) input signal at a quadrature modulator. The method also includes performing constant envelope bi-phase shift keying (CE-BPSK) modulation using the quadrature modulator to generate a modulated output signal. The I and Q input signals comprise complementary transitions that alter a frequency of the modulated output signal while maintaining a substantially-constant amplitude of the modulated output signal. The transitions of the Q input signal are associated with data being encoded onto the modulated output signal, and the modulated output signal represents the data using two phases and has phase reversals positioned between the two phases.
