MSK matlab code

This page of MATLAB source code covers MSK matlab code. The output plots and mathematical equations of MSK modulation matlab code are mentioned. MSK modulation stands for Minimum Shift Keying Modulation.

Introduction:
MSK modulation is derived from OQPSK modulation. OQPSK offers maximum pahse shift of 45 degree between two transitions. MSK offers 0 degree phase shift between transitions. MSK modulation uses half cycle sine wave instead of rectangular pulse wave. In MSK, frequency of logic-0 and logic-1 differs by half of data rate. MSK equation and modulation waveforms are depicted below.
