Abstract :
Mobile SSB and fm systems are compared on the basis of the same equipment size. The influence of the speech processing on the comparative results is discussed. It is concluded that SSB may provide a somewhat better range of operation with considerable spectrum saving but the signal-to-noise ratio in strong signal areas will be poorer.
