Linear Demodulator
Figure 49 shows a block diagram of the linear demodulator.
A digital frequency discriminator provides an output signal that
is linearly proportional to the frequency of the limiter outputs.
The discriminator output is filtered and averaged using a combined
averaging filter and envelope detector. The demodulated 2FSK
data from the post demodulator filter is recovered by slicing against
the output of the envelope detector, as shown in Figure 49. This
method of demodulation corrects for frequency errors between
transmitter and receiver when the received spectrum is close to
or within the IF bandwidth. This envelope detector output is
also used for AFC readback and provides the frequency estimate
for the AFC control loop.
Post Demodulator Filter
A second-order, digital low-pass filter removes excess noise from
the demodulated bit stream at the output of the discriminator.
The bandwidth of this post demodulator filter is programmable
and must be optimized for the user’s data rate and received
modulation type. If the bandwidth is set too narrow, performance
degrades due to intersymbol interference (ISI). If the bandwidth
is set too wide, excess noise degrades the performance of the
receiver. The POST_DEMOD_BW bits (R4_DB[20:29]) set the
bandwidth of this filter.
2FSK Bit Slicer/Threshold Detection
2FSK demodulation can be implemented using the correlator
FSK demodulator or the linear FSK demodulator. In both cases,
threshold detection is used for data recovery at the output of the
post demodulation filter.
The output signal levels of the correlator demodulator are
always centered about zero. Therefore, the slicer threshold level
can be fixed at zero, and the demodulator performance is
independent of the run-length constraints of the transmit data
bit stream. This results in robust data recovery that does not
suffer from the classic baseline wander problems that exist in
the more traditional FSK demodulators.
When the linear demodulator is used for 2FSK demodulation,
the output of the envelope detector is used as the slicer threshold,
and this output tracks frequency errors that are within the IF
filter bandwidth.

3FSK and 4FSK Threshold Detection
4FSK demodulation is implemented using the correlator
demodulator followed by the post demodulator filter and
threshold detection. The output of the post demodulation
filter is a 4-level signal that represents the transmitted symbols
(−3, −1, +1, +3). Threshold detection of 4FSK requires three
threshold settings, one that is always fixed at 0 and two that
are programmable and are symmetrically placed above and
below zero using the 3FSK/4FSK_SLICER_THRESHOLD bits
(R13_DB[4:10]).
3FSK demodulation is implemented using the correlator demodu-
lator, followed by a post demodulator filter. The output of the
post demodulator filter is a 3-level signal that represents the
transmitted symbols (−1, 0, +1). Data recovery of 3FSK can be
implemented using threshold detection or Viterbi detection.
Threshold detection is implemented using two thresholds that
are programmable and are symmetrically placed above and
below zero using the 3FSK/4FSK_SLICER_THRESHOLD bits
(R13_DB[4:10]).
3FSK Viterbi Detection
Viterbi detection of 3FSK operates on a four-state trellis and is
implemented using two interleaved Viterbi detectors operating
at half the symbol rate. The Viterbi detector is enabled by
R13_DB11.
To facilitate different run length constraints in the transmitted
bit stream, the Viterbi path memory length is programmable
in steps of 4 bits, 6 bits, 8 bits, or 32 bits by setting the
VITERBI_PATH_MEMORY bits (R13_DB[13:14]). This
of consecutive 0s in the interleaved transmit bit stream.
When used with Viterbi detection, the receiver sensitivity
for 3FSK is typically 3 dB greater than that obtained using
threshold detection. When the Viterbi detector is enabled,
however, the receiver bit latency is increased by twice the
Viterbi path memory length.
Clock Recovery
An oversampled digital clock and data recovery (CDR) PLL is
used to resynchronize the received bit stream to a local clock
in all modulation modes. The oversampled clock rate of the PLL
(CDR CLK) must be set at 32 times the symbol rate (see the
Register 3—Transmit/Receive Clock Register section). The
maximum data/symbol rate tolerance of the CDR PLL is
determined by the number of zero-crossing symbol transitions
in the transmitted packet. For example, if using 2FSK with a
101010 preamble, a maximum tolerance of ±3.0% of the data
rate is achieved. However, this tolerance is reduced during
recovery of the remainder of the packet where symbol transi-
tions may not be guaranteed to occur at regular intervals.
To maximize the data rate tolerance of the CDR, some form
of encoding and/or data scrambling is recommended that
guarantees a number of transitions at regular intervals.
