Abstract :
This method does not require the usual two carriers in quadrature (I and Q channels), nor does it require data prefiltering to smooth the phase transitions. The system described here acts as a `delay modulator¿ of a single carrier, resulting in a linear phase shift and absolutely constant envelope of the modulated signal.
