Abstract

This document describes techniques for performing non-coherent demodulation of a differentially modulated signal in a drift robust manner. A differentially modulated signal, including a plurality of symbols, may be received. Non-coherent domodulation of the differentially modulated signal may be performed. The non-coherent demodulation may include performing noise prediction using a high-pass filtered estimated error signal associated with the differentially modulated signal. In some embodiments, frequency offset estimation to reduce frequency offset of the differentially modulated signal may also be performed as part of the non-coherent demodulation.
