Abstract

A system for transmitting digital data employs an angle modulated carrier signal having constant amplitude and a limited spectrum. The system comprises an offset quadrature phase shift key (QPSK) modulator with a 'tracking filter' phaselocked loop at the output of the QPSK modulator. The phaselocked loop has a voltage controlled oscillator which produces a constant amplitude carrier signal at the output of the loop, and also has a low pass loop filter which reduces the spectrum of the phase modulated carrier signal. Additional spectrum shaping is obtained by connecting L-R-C circuits to the low pass loop filter to eliminate predetermined frequency components from the output of the loop.
