Abstract

A digital control circuit means responsive to a timing signal and a phase shift control signal accepts digital dibits of data and generates a digital control output signal. A digital phase shifter coupled to the control circuit and responsive to a timing signal generates a main and a secondary channel digital output signal alternately at a first and a second output terminal during successive dibit intervals. The main channel digital output signal is phase shifted a predetermined amount with respect to a main channel digital output signal generated during a preceding dibit interval in response to said digital control output signal. A multiplexer coupled to the first and second output terminals of the phase shifter transmits the main channel digital output signal on a third output terminal and the secondary channel digital output signal on a fourth output terminal. A digital number generator coupled to the third and fourth output terminals and responsive to a timing signal generates a series of digital output signals representative of a predetermined analog magnitude. A digital to analog converter converts the digital output signals from the digital number generator into a differential phase shift keyed analog output signal.
