Abstract

The direct-to-home satellite digital video broadcasting has been fast developed in the past decades, and the continuous phase modulation (CPM) is an alternative modulation scheme with the advantages of constant envelope and high spectral efficiency for the band-limited channel and non-linear amplifiers of the satellite transponder. In this paper, CPM cascaded with irregular low density parity check (LDPC) code is studied. A practical system model with global interleaving is proposed for the optimization of degree distribution of the LDPC codes, and code word design is obtained with a modified progressive edge-growth algorithm. Simulation results combined with theoretical analysis clarify the effect of signal-to-noise ratios and two important CPM parameters (modulation index ${h}$ and correlation length ${L}$ ), providing guidance for system design. Simulation on bit error rate performance show the validity of the proposed algorithm. This paper systematically solves the optimal system design of cascade irregular LDPC-CPM and is of great significance for future satellite broadcasting.
