  • Abstract
    A noncoherent Gaussian minimum phase-shift keying (GMSK) detector using differential phase detection combined with the soft-output Viterbi algorithm (SOVA) is presented. This approach overcomes the severe intersymbol interference (ISI) of GMSK signals with low BtT. Unlike conventional detectors the SOVA produces soft-decision bits resulting in larger coding gains in subsequent convolutional decoders
