Abstract

A modulated carrier is received on a node (10) and then the I- and the Q-channels extracted with a local carrier clock (16) that is free-running relative to the modulated carrier. The I- and the Q-channels are then input to a digital signal processor (26) wherein a composite phase signal is generated representing the phase difference between the modulated carrier and the local carrier clock (16). The composite phase is output from a look-up table in an EPROM (30) and then the free-running phase the local carrier clock (16) and the modulated carrier is discriminated from the composite phase. The free-running phase is then subtracted from the composite phase to yield the phase modulation on the carrier.
