Abstract

Investigation of multicarrier modulation has demonstrated the feasibility of using this modulation format to deliver relatively high channel bit rates (24 kbps) to a low cost, pager-like personal communications service (PCS) terminal that enjoys long battery life (e.g., one month on a few pen-light cells). This is to be compared to the 1200 bps carried by typical current paging systems or the 6250 bps attained by the new ERMES paging system. While more complex modulation formats, such as PSK and QAM, might achieve higher bit rates in less (power, size, cost) constrained environments, amplitude keying of the component subcarriers allows simple noncoherent energy detection that is found to be robust in this short message delivery application.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
