`
`MULTIPLE-MODULATION COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
`
`Field of the Invention
`
`This invention relates to radio frequency signals, including but
`not limited to transmission and reception of amplitude modulated
`(AM) and frequency modulated (FM) signals.
`
`Background of the Invention
`
`A radio communication system permits transmission of
`information between a transmitter and a receiver. A radio
`frequency (RF) channel permits transmission of information
`between the transmitter and the receiver. By combining the
`information with an RF electromagnetic wave of a particular
`frequency, i.e., modulating the information signal onto a carrier
`frequency, the resultant modulated information signal may be
`transmitted through free space to a receiver. Various modulation
`techniques (e.g., amplitude (AM), frequency (FM), phase, and
`composite modulation) are known to combine the information
`signal with an electromagnetic wave. Communication units,
`such as portable radios, mobile radios, and base stations, contain
`transmitters and/or receivers.
`A linear AM transmitter does not have as much coverage
`area, i.e., the signal does not travel as far, as an FM transmitter at
`the same peak transmit power level because the average envelope
`size of an AM transmission varies below the maximum output
`level, whereas the average envelope size of an FM transmission is
`constant at the maximum output level. An FM transmitter,

`
`however, uses more energy to transmit at the same power level as
`a.Tl AM transmitter, and hence the FM transmitter will more
`quickly drain the battery of a portable transmitter.
`Accordingly, there is a need for a transmitter which has the
`low power characteristic of an AM transmitter while retaining the
`advantage of coverage area of an FM transmitter.
`
`Brief Description of the Drawings
`
`FIG. 1 shows an FM transmitter, an M1 transmitter, and a
`common receiver in accordance with the invention.
`FIG. 2 shows a detailed FM transmitter, a detailed AM
`transmitter, and a detailed common receiver in accordance with
`the invention.
`
`Description of a Preferred Embodiment
`
`The following describes an apparatus for and method of
`transmitting communication signals with a single transmitter
`and receiving the same signals with a single receiver. Additional
`communication range is obtained when transmitting FM signals.
`More efficient battery performance is achieved when transmitting
`linear AM signals. A single transmitter transmits both AM and
`FM signals. A single receiver capable of differentiating phase
`differences demodulates either AM or FM signals. Only one
`receiver is necessary, and there is no need to inform the receiver of
`what type of modulation was performed on the transmitted signal.
`In the preferred embodiment, FM modulators have 12.5 kHz

`of Alan L. Wilson et al. on December 19, 1990, which information
`is enclosed herein by reference. QPSK stands for Quaternary
`Phase Shift Keying. QPSK-c, where the c stands for compatible, is
`a linear differential form of QPSK that is AM and FM compatible.
`It is possible to transmit with a higher average power using FM,
`and hence increased coverage area is obtained for the signal than
`when AM is used. An Ml transmitter, however, consumes less
`power and hence is a more efficient user of a portable radio's
`battery charge or power than an FM transmitter. When using
`QPSKftc modulation, 4ftleve1 FSK (Frequency Shift Keying} is used
`in FM transmissions and DftQPSK (Differential QPSK) is used in
`AM transmissions. Switching from AM to FM yields higher
`average power, and hence increased coverage area for the signal,
`at the cost of battery charge. Thus range is enhanced and greater
`coverage is obtained for the same radio, or communication unit,
`when such coverage is desired. Conversely, switching from FM to
`AM when extended range is not necessary conserves battery
`charge. In the present invention, the communication unit
`changes its type of modulation and thus is more quickly responsive
`to such a change. This is accomplished by, inter alia, an x/(sin x)
`filter, where x :::: 1t fT in the preferred embodiment, and a phase
`angle integrator for the exponential function.
`One part of FIG. 1 shows a conventional four~level FM
`transmitter. Information to be transmitted enters a digital signal
`processor (DSP) 101. The DSP 101 processes the information and
`sends it to frequency modulator 103 which passes the information
`to power amplifier (PA) 105 which is rated class C. As shown in
`FIG. 1, a class C four-level FM transmitter transmits a constant
`envelope.
`A conventional linear AM transmitter is also shown in FIG.
`1. Information to be transmitted is processed in DSP 107 and
`output to a conventional linearizer 109, the output of which is input
`to a class AB power amplifier 111. As seen in the diagram, an AM
`signal has a non-constant envelope. The average signal power of

`
`an AM signal is less than the average signal power of an FM
`signal having the same peak envelope size.
`Also shown in FIG. 1 is a common :receiver which may
`receive information from both four-level FM transmitter and
`linear AM transmitters. The common receiver has a front-end
`receiver 113, a digital receiver 115, and a digital signal processor
`117 that processes the information into data or audible speech. A
`linear AM transmitter has a time¥varying amplitude that is
`reduced for high frequency deviation. Note that DSP 101, DSP 107,
`and DSP 117 also perform functions other than those shown.
`Throughout the specification and drawings, the DSP as shown
`may be a DSP 56001 available from Motorola., Inc.
`FIG. 2 shows a detailed implementation of the transmitters
`and :receiver of f'IG. 1. An FM transmitter, yielding 4¥level FSK
`data, is shown by blocks 201, 203, 205 and 207. 4-level data is input
`to a raised-cosine filter 201 which is a splatter filter of the Nyquist
`raised-cosine finite impulse response type with splatter filter
`transition ratio alpha= 0.2, as is known in the a.rt, The FM
`transmitter includes a differential encoder comprised of blocks 203
`and 205. An fT/sin(n fT) filter 203 and an integrator 205 comprise
`the differential encoder. In the preferred embodiment, the
`integrator 205 is a simple integrator that uses the modulo 2r.:
`property of the phase to avoid overflowing, as is known in the art.
`The output of integrator 205 is the phase 0 of the 4ulevel input
`signal. A detailed description of one implementation of the raised(cid:173)
`cosine filter 201 and 11: fT/sin(n: IT) filter 203 follows in the next
`paragraph. Phase modulator 207 takes the phase f,!I and modulates
`it, creating a complexuvalued result that is designated e.1~. The
`output, e.1~, of phase modulator is input to switch 209.
`The cascaded filter implementation of the Nyquist
`raised-cosine filter 201 and the rr IT/sin(it IT) filter 203 may be
`implemented as follows. Let H(w) equal the frequency response of
`an ideal Nyquist raised cosine filter. The normalized corner
`frequency is 1 radian/second, and the normalized symbol time
`(denoted by T) is 11: seconds, and

`limiting is optional and is not required for the present invention.
`The AM t:ransmitter1 yielding D-QPSK data, is comprised of
`blocks 211,213,215, and 217. Four level data having levels of± n/4
`and ± 3n:/4 enters a differential encoder comprised of a summer
`211 and a delay 213. The output of this differential encoder enters a
`phase modulator 215, where the output of the phase modulator 215
`has complex components I and Q at one sample per symbol. I
`represents the in~phase component, and Q represents the
`quadrature component. The output of modulator 215 is input to
`raised cosine filter 217 with alpha = 0.2 where raised cosine filter
`217 is similar to raised cosine filter 201. The output of raised
`cosine filter 217 is input to switch 209. Whichever form of
`transmission is selected, either FM or A.i..'1, the output of that part
`of the transmitter is input to modulator 219, which modulates the
`signal to the carrier frequency w.
`Blocks 211, 213, and 215 each operate at the :rate of one
`sample/symbol or 4800 syrnbolsisecond. Blocks 201 and 217
`interpolate from 1 sample/symbol to N samples/symbol at the

`output, where N is usually 10 or more, but at least greater than
`one. Blocks 203, 205, and 207 each operate at N samples/symbol.
`For efficiency and to eliminate redundant parts in the
`preferred embodiment, only one class AB PA is used in the
`transmitter, thus the linear Mi transmitter configuration of FIG.
`1 is used to embody the entire transmitter of FIG. 2, blocks 201
`through 219 inclusive. Because the preferred embodiment of the
`present invention uses a DSP, transmitter blocks 201,203,205,207,
`209, 211, 213, 215, 217, and 219 are easily implemented in the DSP
`107 of the linear AM transmitter. Because blocks 201 through 219
`are included in the DSP 107, it is unnecessary to duplicate DSP 101,
`frequency modulator 103, and PA 105. The modulator 219 is also
`implemented in the DSP 107 1 and the output of the modulator 219 is
`input to the linearizer 109 prior to transmission.
`A detailed common receiver is also shown in FIG. 2. In the
`preferred embodiment, the receiver blocks 221, 223, 225, 227, 229,
`and 231 are a.11 implemented in the DSP 117, When the :receiver
`and transmitter are in the same communication unit or radio, one
`or more DSPs may be used to support the functions of DSP 107 and
`DSP 117. A loose IF (intermediate frequency) filter 221, first
`receives a modulated signal. The output of the loose IF filter 221 is
`input to inverse tangent function 223, which is part of a frequency
`demodulator including blocks 223,225 and 227. Blocks 225 and 227
`a.re also part of a differential encoder also including integrate a.11d
`dump filter 229, the function of which is described in detail in the
`following paragraph. The output of block 223 is input to summer
`227 and the positive form of the delayed component is subtracted
`from block 227 as output from block 225. The output of integrate
`and dump filter 229 is input to stochastic gradient bit recovery
`block 231 the output of which is four level data as transmitted
`initially. Stochastic gradient bit recovery is well known in the art.
`Because the receiver is sensitive only to phase, the envelope does
`not matter and both FM and AM transmission may be received
`and properly decoded by this common receiver. Thus, because a
`more powerful AM PA is required than for an FM PA for the same

`The impulse response for the integrate and dump filter 22.9 is
`derived below, in a closedufo:rm solution that is expressed in terms
`of the sine integral function Si(x), which is well known in the art.
`A bandulimited integrate and dump filter is achieved when a
`portion of the side lobes are filtered out of the frequency response.
`The portion of the frequency response that is necessary for good

`Although the above implementation is shown in band-limited
`form, bandulimiting is optional and is not required for the present
`invention.
`Hence in the present invention, when it is desired for any
`reason by command or as determined by the radio, the radio will
`automatically switch from AM to FM to gain extra range for a
`particular signal. . The radio or communication unit may also
`receive a signal, such as from a base station or other controlling
`unit including another radio, instructing it to transmit with a
`particular modulation. Similarly, the radio will automaticaHy
`switch from FM to A.'\\1 to gain better battery efficiency. This
`switching takes place in switch 209, which is controlled by a DSP
`in the preferred embodiment.
`Although the preferred embodiment uses QPSK-c
`modulation, a common receiver can still be used for any
`modulation that distinguishes data by phase, i.e., where all the
`constellation points fall on a circle, such as QPSK, D~QPSK, and
`CORPSK (Correlated PSK).
`Although a DSP is used to perform many of the functions of
`the present invention, discrete elements or other programmable
`logic may also be used and will achieve the same effect.
