Algorithm for nonlinear digital filtering of harmonic filling of phase-shift keyed signals

In this work, we propose a method for nonlinear digital filtering of phase-shift keyed signals with different carrier frequencies on the basis of separating the phase discontinuities of the input signals. The method allows one to avoid compensation for unknown frequency shift in the problems of determining the time delay of signals in the case of multichannel propagation. The efficiency of the proposed method is shown for the signals which are short informative packages with the phase-shift keying against the noise background in the presence of the Doppler effect. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Radiofizika, Vol. 49, No. 8, pp. 704–711, August 2006.
