Abstract

A system which phase modulates a carrier to produce a carrier signal which transitions in phase between predetermined phase states as a function of the data, wherein a rate at which the carrier signal changes phase during a transition between the predetermined phase states varies substantially sinusoidally. The phase modulation provides a constant amplitude modulated waveform having low side lobes. Such modulation method preserves the high noise tolerance capabilities associated with FH systems and the high data throughput capabilities of DS systems.
