Abstract
A method of providing a modulated signal for transmission is disclosed. The method includes selecting a modulation symbol, and operating a signal generator to provide the selected modulation symbol for transmission. Each available modulation symbol has a symbol duration, includes a pulse, and indicates information by a combination of an amplitude of the pulse and a carrier phase of the pulse. A position of the pulse is defined within the symbol duration, and at least two of the available modulation symbols have different symbol durations. The combination may further include the position of the pulse. In some embodiments, the pulse represents an end of the available modulation symbol, and the pulse is preceded by a silent period. A corresponding method of processing a received signal of modulation symbols is also disclosed; as well as corresponding computer program products, apparatuses, and communication devices.
