Doppler Damage - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

[color=blue]Hi,
I'm wonderning if I could get some reference material or email on the SNR loss with respect to Doppler losses and, if possible its effect w/r to modulation schemes. Mostly interested in X-to-V band with M-ary FSK, but PSK schemes, QPSK, CDMA would also be of interest.

Also would like to know timing delays for typical doppler compensation rate loops (ie how fast can ompensation loops track back to the reference signal? How many cycles are necessary to determine proper compensation? Is there an upper slew rate that is normally set for max doppler compensation in terms like (delta F/F) ? etc.)

Regards,
