Abstract
The performance of Miller coded pilot aided modulation systems is studied by computer-aided design techniques. It is shown that the use of this nonredundant code may improve the bit error rate (BER) performance of pilot aided modulation schemes over similar uncoded coherent and noncoherent systems. Miller coded random data have a spectral density about 12 dB lower than uncoded data at and around the unmodulated carrier frequency. The use of this code reduces the interference between the data spectrum and the pilot tone, and hence improves the BER performance. This improvement is significant, particularly in low bit-rate systems where a relatively wide bandpass filter is required for pilot extraction and successful compensation for fading and Doppler shift caused phase variations. This improved BER performance is obtained with no redundancy, but at the cost of some spectral efficiency.Keywords
