Abstract
A power and spectrally efficient modulation which increases transmit o utput power and reduces interference among adjacent channel users in P CS and satellite TV broadcasting applications is presented. This modul ation named Filtered Quadrature Phase Shift Keying or ''FQPSK'' can be nonlinearly amplified using class C amplifiers allowing 7-10 dB incre ase in transmit output power compared to QPSK modulated systems. This gain in output power leads to transmission coverage in applications, l onger battery life and reduced radiation for PCS users.
