dc.description.abstractContinuous Phase Frequency Shift Keying (CPFSK) is a constant amplitude modulation of growing popularity in low earth orbit satellites (LEOSAT) because of its spectral efficiency. This thesis compares the error rate performance of CPFSK demodulation using quadrature detectors and phase-locked loops under varying carrier to noise ratios and simulated Doppler shifts, as might be expected for a low earth orbit satellite downlink. Experimental comparison between a quadrature detector and a phase-locked loop demodulator shows that phase-locked loop demodulators and quadrature detectors offer equivalent performance as demodulators at low carrier to noise ratios for narrowband FM/CPFSK systems. This contrasts with earlier work that shows that phase-locked loops can provide threshold extension for wideband FM systems.en
