Abstract :
The purpose of this work is to design a MSK modulator capable to work at a high data modulation. To achieve a low simulation runtime, the modulator is described in VHDL-AMS hardware description language. It is optimized by applying the “Hoke_D4 experimental design” with five factors having in view to minimize the modulator response time. An optimum solution is performed with the help of NEMROD software.
