Abstract

The technical characteristics and features of a standard defining interoperable digitized voice and digital data modes operating at 8000 b/s with 12.5 kHz or narrower channel spacings at frequencies above 30 MHz are described. The voice modes will incorporate the US government standard 4800 b/s code-excited linear prediction (CELP) voice coding algorithm. Both voice and data modes will utilize error control coding with interleaving to combat error bursts typical of digital land mobile radio communication channels. The baseband transmission format is designed with a superframe structure that will provide for reliable late-entry synchronization. The data rate, transmission modes, transmission format, and modulation technique are discussed
