Topic: Electronics Engineering

What is the advantage of Offset QPSK (OQPSK) compared to conventional QPSK?

  • A. Constant envelope
  • B. Bandwidth efficiency
  • C. Simple demodulator
  • D. All of these

Answer: A. Constant envelope

Explanation: Offset QPSK delays the Q channel by half a symbol period, preventing simultaneous transitions in the I and Q channels. This avoids 180-degree phase shifts, thus minimizing envelope fluctuations and maintaining a more constant envelope.
