Abstract

Systems and methods for bandwidth reduction in polar modulation systems are described. Detection of problematic signal transition paths may performed, and then, dependent on the signal path, a correction signal may be generated and added to the signal to improve system performance. In typical implementations, detection of problematic signal paths may be performed by determining whether the signal transitions through a particular region in the signal constellation, such as a region about the origin, or whether the signal instantaneous frequency exceeds a predetermined threshold, and then responsively generating the correction signal.
