Abstract :
Results from a comparison of SSB and FM for telephony use in mobile radio are reported. The tests were conducted at carrier frequencies of about 160 MHz, and the impairments considered included ignition noise, fading and cochannel interference. The results show the subjective performance of SSB to be poorer than that of 12.5 kHz FM.
