Abstract
A strictly feedforward demodulator structure for minimum shift keying (MSK) modulation with joint nondata-aided symbol clock and frequency offset estimation is presented. Due to its feedforward operation, clock synchronization and frequency offset compensation are hang-up free, and the demodulator is well suited for a digital implementation. The sampled baseband signal is passed through a nonlinearity and smoothed by a digital filter. The magnitude of the filter output directly drives the clock recovery process. The phase of the smoothed signal is an estimate of the carrier frequency offset and is used for offset compensation. Following synchronization, the signal is demodulated by differentially coherent detection. The performance of the demodulator is assessed for the AWGN and the Rayleigh flat and frequency-selective fading channel by computer simulations.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
