Abstract
A remote ground terminal transmitter for transmitting a modulated data signal having a constant envelope amplitude. The remote ground terminal transmitter comprises a source of data signals, a modulator for providing a carrier signal, receiving a data signal from the source of data signals, and modulating the carrier signal with the received data signal so as to produce a constant envelope minimum shift key modulation signal. The transmitter further comprises a power amplifier which operates in the saturation mode to amplify the modulated carrier signal produced by the modulator to the desired power level.
