Abstract
The effects of the DGPS tansmitter/coupler/antenna on the OFDM and PTO modulations are investigated. Greater demands for accuracy coupled with current operations have prompted a reexamination of the DGPS data and signal structure, for improving information rate while minimizing legacy user impact. The DGPS system is a medium frequency (MF) radio system that is used worldwide for broadcast of differential corrections to GPS users. The larger bandwidth required by both modulation methods and the non-constant amplitude of OFDM do not appear to be issues for the transmitter.
