TLDR
A number of methods for constructing constant amplitude signals which significantly outperform MSK are considered, and at what level of complexity these improvements are obtained and realized.
Abstract
M inimum Shift Keying (MSK) [ 11 or Fast Frequency Shift Keying (FFSK) is a digital modulation technique with constant amplitude which has been studied extensively during recent years. The properties of MSK are now understood [2-51. In this article, we report on methods to improve on MSK while maintaining a constant amplitude. By improvement we mean a narrower power spectrum, lower spectral sidelobes, better error probability, or all of the above. The cost of signal processing and the speed and complexity with which it can be performed has steadily been improved over recent years. Further improvements are to be expected. Therefore, it is reasonable to study what can be accomplished with methods that might be too complex for cost effective realization today, but perhaps may be easily achievable tomorrow. In this paper, we consider a number of methods for constructing constant amplitude signals which significantly outperform MSK [5-1031. We also discuss at what level of complexity these improvements are obtained and realized.

High-capacity coherent lightwave systems

TL;DR: The most significant obstacles to the attainment of quantum-noise limited detection at higher speeds are seen to be the requirement of uniform frequency response from electronic components and the local oscillator laser power requirement, which increases as the square of the bit rate.

Continuous Phase Modulation--Part I: Full Response Signaling

TL;DR: Comparisons are made with minimum shift keying (MSK) and systems have been found which are significantly better in E_{b}/N_{0} for a large signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) without expanded bandwidth, and schemes with the same bit error probability as MSK but with considerably smaller bandwidth have also been found.

Partial-Response Signaling

TL;DR: A PRS system model is introduced which enables the investigation of PRS schemes from the viewpoint of spectral properties such as bandwidth, nulls, and continuity of derivatives and it is shown that eye width, a performance measure that has not been used previously in comparing PRS systems, can be calculated analytically in many cases.
