I've seen a number of inquiries about minimum shift keying, it's
generation and demodulation. I haven't been able to find anything to
recommend on the web, which is frustrating since I built a MSK receiver
for my Master's thesis about 15 years ago.

So I've posted my Master's thesis. It goes into some detail about MSK,
it's generation and demodulation. It also goes into some detail about
maritime DGPS data link requirements which I assume no one cares about
-- but it's there if you do.

Thanks go to Joel Kolstad, KE7CDV, for scanning 88 pages from a bound
book and making them look good enough to post without embarrasement.

Hi, Tim -

There was an article in the January 2003 issue of Circuit Cellar by Tom
Napier concerning MSK.

See http://www.circuitcellar.com/magazine/150toc.htm to purchase the article.

Other than this, I've not seen anything on the Web either.

Cheers,
John

Thanks Tim, thats a nice looking thesis, I look forward to reading it.
I'd post mine, but I never got past Ch3 (because somebody offered me
way too much $$$

Three cheers for Joel, its not the first time he's done this

Cheers
