Modulation

The symbol sequence $b=\{1,1,1,-1,-1,1,-1,-1\}$ is to be transmitted at a rate of one bit per $T$ seconds. For each of the following modulation formats sketch in the space provided below

  1. Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) with triangular pulses.

  2. Offset-Quaternary Phase Shift Keying (OQPSK) with rectangular pulses.

  3. Full-response Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM) with modulation index and rectangular pulses.

  4. Partial-response ($L=2$) Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM) with modulation index and rectangular pulses.

  5. Comment on the bandwidth requirements for each of these modulation formats. Which modulation format has the narrowest (widest) main-lobe? Which modulation format provides the fastest (slowest) side-lobe decay?
