Abstract :
A new technique is presented to separate two cochannel frequency modulation signals. Two candidate solutions for the phases are analytically derived, and a sequence of phase solutions is chosen to match the expected power spectral density of each constituent signal. This is accomplished with a one-step linear predictor and a simple two-state Viterbi algorithm. Simulations on recorded radio frequency data indicate improved separation capability over other techniques such as the joint Viterbi algorithm and cross-coupled phase-locked loop
