On the modelling of GMSK binary transmission over time-variant TDMA/FDD macrocellular radio channels with derotation-based coherent demodulation

GMSK is an efficient modulation technique for digital mobile communications. In this paper a simple solution to the modeling and simulation of GMSK systems impaired by fading channels and additive white Gaussian noise is given, and its effects on the channel characteristics are also considered. The modeling is based on the well-known linearized representation of phase-modulated signals. The analysis is not only useful for modeling and simulation purposes, but also gives a tool for the design of simple receivers
