Abstract
A method and apparatus for performing fractional minimum shift key modulation for a very small aperture terminal. A signal with a fractional modulation which appears to be frequency shift key is generated in the indoor unit. The outdoor unit employs a novel multiplication method to translate this signal to a minimum shift key modulated signal for satellite transmission.
