[Freetel-codec2] Symbol rate of central sync carrier

2016-08-17 Thread Phil Frost
I've been working on an independent implementation of the FDMDV modem as a personal exercise. As I understood the description*, the central BPSK subcarrier should be at a symbol rate of 50 per second, but looking at the tone spacing it's too narrow: but a 25 symbols per second seems to line up. Am

[Freetel-codec2] 700C mode development?

2016-09-19 Thread Phil Frost
I've heard there's a 700C mode being developed. I can't promise to be useful, but I'd like to help. I can't find much information on it though, besides a blog post[1] that mentions it indirectly. Is there some code I should check out? And more generally, what kind of help would be most useful? Amp

Wouldn't the ISI largely (theoretically, completely) be ameliorated by trellis decoding? And I'm not talking about FEC, but rather incorporating the ISI into the expected Cartesian coordinates for each symbol. I did some experimentation with this technique on BPSK31, and I was able to get a little
