As shown in figure 33, quasi-synchronous detection device 129 comprises a 8PSK demodulator 129A, a BPS demodulator 129B and a switch 129C.The output I and the Q signal of 8PSK demodulator 129A and BPS demodulator 129B received RF part 122.In addition, by calculator 125 and 126 notice 8PSK demodulator 129A and the amplitude amount of distortion of BPSK demodulator 129B estimation and the frequency offset of estimation.
Device 129A carries out the 8PSK demodulation in response to the amplitude amount of distortion of estimation and the frequency offset of estimation to baseband I signal and baseband Q signal, thereby baseband demodulation I signal and baseband signal Q become raw digital signal.Like this, 8PSK demodulator 129A recovers raw digital signal by baseband I signal and baseband Q signal.The raw digital signal that 8PSK demodulator 129A output recovers is to switch 129C.
Device 129B carries out the BPSK demodulation in response to the amplitude amount of distortion and the frequency offset of estimation to baseband I signal and baseband Q signal, thereby baseband I signal and baseband Q signal demodulation are become raw digital signal.Like this, BPSK demodulator 129B recovers raw digital signal by baseband I signal and baseband Q signal.BPSK demodulator 129B outputs to switch 129C to the raw digital signal of recovering.
Switch 129C response timing signal (frame and symbol synchronization signal) is alternately selected the output digital signal of 8PSK demodulator 129A and BPSK demodulator 129B, and transmits selected signal to the back level.Consistent with the result of BPSK modulation to quasi-synchronous detection device 129 when the baseband signal I and the Q signal of radio frequency part 122 outputs, switch 129C selects the output digital signal of BPSK modulator 129B.
For example, 8PSK demodulator 129A comprises an amplitude rectification circuit and a frequency calibration circuit.The amplitude distortion of amplitude calibration circuit compensation baseband I signal and baseband Q signal is with the amplitude distortion of response estimation, thus baseband I signal and Q signal that generation obtains through single compensation.The frequency offset that the baseband I signal that obtains behind the deaccentuator compensation single compensation and the frequency offset of Q signal are estimated with response, thus a baseband I and a Q signal that obtains through the second compensation compensation produced.The baseband Q signal that baseband I signal that two undercompensations obtain in 9PSK demodulator 129A and second compensation obtain is subjected to the 8PSK demodulation, converts raw digital signal to.
For example, BPSK demodulator 129B comprises an amplitude rectification circuit and a deaccentuator.The amplitude distortion of amplitude rectification circuit compensation baseband I signal and baseband Q signal is with the amplitude distortion of response estimation, thus the baseband Q signal that obtains behind baseband I signal that obtains behind the generation single compensation and the single compensation.The baseband I signal that obtains behind the deaccentuator compensation single compensation and the frequency offset of Q signal produce the baseband I and the baseband Q signal that obtain after one two compensation thus.Baseband I that obtains behind the second compensation in BPS demodulator 129B and Q signal are converted into raw digital signal through the BPSK demodulation.

Simulation
Simulate by computer.During simulating, on 16 value QAM bases, produce normal code element according to the present invention, on QPSK modulation basis, produce direct symbol simultaneously.The method according to this invention is combined into code element stream with normal code element and direct symbol.In code element stream, the normal code element number between the direct symbol (being data symbols length) equals given natural number " n ", and the direct symbol of each separation equals length 1.Given natural number " n " is " 1 ", " 7 " or " 15 ".Thereby produce 3 class code element stream.In simulation, each first kind code element stream, the second class code element stream and the 3rd class code element stream send to receiver from transmitter.In receiver, normal code element is carried out quasi-synchronous detection with 16 value QAM demodulation, and direct symbol is with the QPSK demodulation detection of delaying time.For each first kind code element stream, the second class code element stream and the 3rd class code element stream, when changing 1 signal energy " Eb ", calculate bit error rate to Carrier To Noise Power Density " No " ratio.Equal under the situation of " 1 " at given natural number " n ", when 1 signal energy " Eb " increased the ratio of Carrier To Noise Power Density " No ", the bit error rate that calculates descended along the curve D 1 of Figure 94.Equal under the situation of " 7 " at given natural number " n ", when 1 signal energy " Eb " increased the ratio of Carrier To Noise Power Density " No ", the bit error rate that calculates descended along the curve D 7 of Figure 94.Equal under the situation of " 15 " at given natural number " n ", when 1 signal energy " Eb " increased the ratio of Carrier To Noise Power Density " No ", the bit error rate that calculates descended along the curve D 15 of Figure 94.
As a comparative example, on prior art system, similarly simulate.Specifically, produce normal code element according to 16 value QAM, and in the signaling point of maximum amplitude as direct symbol, with art methods with normal code element and pilot set generated code flow filament.In code element stream, the normal code element number between the direct symbol (being data symbols length) equals given natural number " n ", and the direct symbol of each separation equals length 1.Given natural number " n " is " 1 ", " 7 " or " 15 ".Thereby produce 3 class code element stream.Each first kind code element stream, the second class code element stream and the 3rd class code element stream send to receiver from transmitter.At receiver, the code element stream that sends is carried out quasi-synchronous detection with 16 value QAM demodulation.For each first kind code element stream, the second class code element stream and the 3rd class code element stream, when changing 1 signal energy " Eb ", calculate bit error rate to Carrier To Noise Power Density " No " ratio.Equal under the situation of " 1 " at given natural number " n ", when 1 signal energy " Eb " increased the ratio of Carrier To Noise Power Density " No ", the bit error rate that calculates descended along the curve E1 of Figure 94.Equal under the situation of " 7 " at given natural number " n ", when 1 signal energy " Eb " increased the ratio of Carrier To Noise Power Density " No ", the bit error rate that calculates descended along the curve E7 of Figure 94.Equal under the situation of " 15 " at given natural number " n ", when 1 signal energy " Eb " increased the ratio of Carrier To Noise Power Density " No ", the bit error rate that calculates descended along the curve E15 of Figure 94.
Shown in Figure 94, the bit error rate among the present invention (curve D 1, D7 and D15) is better than the bit error rate (curve E1, E7 and E15) of corresponding prior art.
