Abstract
To differentiate between different types of modulation, a fast RSSI detector performs a RSSI measurement on a received signal. The output of the RSSI detector is sampled over a sampling window and generates sampled values. A processor calculates absolute values of piecewise first derivatives of the sampled values and sums the result to create a summation constant. A modulation detector determines the type of modulation based on the value of the summation constant and an RSSI compensation calculates a compensation factor to correct the RSSI measurement.
