It is widely recognized that telemetry channels, particularly airborne channels, are afflicted by multipath propagation effects. It has also been shown that adaptive equalization can be highly effective in mitigating these effects. However, numerous other factors influence the behavior of adaptive equalization, and the type of modulation employed is certainly one of these factors. This is particularly true on modulations which exhibit different operating bandwidths. In this paper, we will examine the effect multipath and adaptive equalization for three modulation techniques which are either already in use, or have been proposed, for airborne telemetry.Sponsors
