Summary :

This paper proposes a new fully-digitalized π/4-shift QPSK modulator consisting of a digital pulse shaping filter and a baseband quadrature modulator. By employing a novel digital filter configuration, the required filter memory is reduced to just 6.25% of the conventional one. Moreover, since the proposed baseband modulation scheme does not employ analog mixers or an analog 90 divider, a very accurate, high-stable and compact modulator is realized. It is shown that the proposed scheme achieves excellent low power consumption characteristics and is more suitable for digital LSIC implementation of personal communication terminals than a direct RF modulation scheme and an analog IF modulation scheme.
