Coherent BPSKBinary Phase-Shift Keying (1 bit per symbol), also known as C-BPSKBinary Phase-Shift Keying (1 bit per symbol), was an experimental amateur mode developed by Bill de Carle VE2IQ.


Characteristics[edit]

Coherent BPSKBinary Phase-Shift Keying (1 bit per symbol) is actually DBPSK (Differential BPSKBinary Phase-Shift Keying (1 bit per symbol)) with a user-defined baudBaud (unit symbol Bd) is the unit for symbol rate or modulation rate in symbols per second. rate. The length of each symbol can be anywhere between 5 msmilliseconds (.001 of a second) to 1000 msmilliseconds (.001 of a second) (200 BdBaud (unit symbol Bd) is the unit for symbol rate or modulation rate in symbols per second. to 1 BdBaud (unit symbol Bd) is the unit for symbol rate or modulation rate in symbols per second.) in 5 msmilliseconds (.001 of a second) increments. Typically, 40 BdBaud (unit symbol Bd) is the unit for symbol rate or modulation rate in symbols per second. (25MS, used in HFHigh Frequency (3-30 MHz) band) and 1 BdBaud (unit symbol Bd) is the unit for symbol rate or modulation rate in symbols per second. (1000MS, used in 130 kHzKiloHertz (kHz) 10^3 Hz experimenters band). are used.

10 bits make an ASCII character (7 data bits, one start bit, two stop bits). For successful reception, 1 HzHertz (Hz), unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second (1 Hz). frequency resolution is required to successfully receive Coherent PSKPhase-Shift Keying.

In addition to baudBaud (unit symbol Bd) is the unit for symbol rate or modulation rate in symbols per second. rates, there are optional FECForward Error Correction encoding modes to improve robustness. These are named ET1 and ET2, ET short for Extended Table. For ET1, instead of 10 bits per ASCII character, there's 16 bits, and for ET2, 27 bits are used.
