MT MLSE Demapper (MSK)
Maps an MSK-modulated complex baseband waveform to an output bit stream using maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE). The node expects the input complex waveform to be synchronized, in every aspect, to the receiver.

Inputs/Outputs

input complex waveform
The modulated complex baseband waveform data.

t0
Trigger (start) time of the Y array.
Default value: 0.0

dt
Time interval between data points in the Y array.
Default value: 1.0

Y
The complex-valued signal-only baseband modulated waveform. The real and imaginary parts of this complex data array correspond to the in-phase (I) and quadrature-phase (Q) data, respectively.

MSK system parameters
Parameter values defining the MSK system. Wire the MSK system parameters cluster of MT Generate MSK System Parameters to this cluster. Do not alter the values.

differential encoding enable
Status of the differential encoding.
disable |
Disables differential encoding for input symbols. |
enable |
Enables differential encoding for input symbols. |
Default value: enable

samples per symbol
An even, positive number of samples dedicated to each symbol. Multiply this value by the symbol rate to determine the sample rate.
Default value: 16

pulse shaping filter coefficients
An ordered array containing the coefficients of the pulse-shaping filter used during the modulation of the received waveform.

MSK MLSE settings
MSK MLSE settings.

traceback depth
Number of trellis stages to trace back during the Viterbi decoding process. The output bit sequence is delayed, in time, by this amount with respect to the incoming waveform.
Default value: 15

block size
Length, in symbols, of a block of the received waveform, used during block-wise processing. At the beginning of each block, the node resets the Viterbi decoding process. Each block overlaps with the previous block for a number of symbols equal to traceback depth. To enable block-wise processing, set this value to a positive integer greater than the traceback depth.
Default value: -1

error in
Error conditions that occur before this node runs.
The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.
Default value: No error

reset?
A Boolean that determines whether the node continues demodulating using the previous iteration states.
TRUE | Restarts the demodulator. The node resets on the first call and when reset? is set to TRUE. |
FALSE | Continues demodulating using the previous iteration states. |
Default value: TRUE

output bit stream
The demapped information bit stream.

error out
Error information.
The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.
