Abstract :
We evaluate the performance, in terms of bit-error rate, of 1- and 2-bit differential detectors for Gaussian minimum-shift keying (GMSK) signals by using a very fast numerical technique which makes use of the saddle point approximation. Moreover, the performance of each detector is optimized by using a closed-form expression of the optimum threshold in the slicer
