Quadrature phase shift keying qpsk this is the phase shift keying technique, in which the sine wave carrier takes four phase reversals such as 0, 90, 180, and 270.
Phaseshift keying or psk is a digital modulation scheme that conveys data by changing, or modulating, the phase of a reference signal or the carrier wave. Minimum shift keying, msk offers advantages in terms of spectral efficiency when compared to other similar modes, and it also enables power amplifiers to operate in saturaton enabling them to provide high levels of efficiency. It is a digital modulation technique which uses phase of the analog carrier to represent digital binary data. Spectrally, digital phase modulation, or phase shift keying psk, is very similar to frequency modulation. If there are eight phases m 8, the mpsk mode is known as octal phaseshift keying opsk, and each phase shift represents three signal elements.
