Le courant des données binaires à l'entrée du codeur est à la cadence nominale de 1/T 90 Mb/s. Il est subdivisé en deux courants a et b chacun à la cadence 1/2T. Ces courants sont codés en différentiel afin d'éliminer les effets de propagation d'erreur, ils sont ensuite modulés en amplitude sur porteuses en quadrature, sommés et passés dans un filtre de codage duobinaire.

The particular form of offset quaternary phase shift keyed modulation which is used in AMSS [aeronautical mobile-satellite service] for channel rates greater than 2 400 bits/s. A-QPSK is a modulation technique that maps a "0" into a 0 degrees and "1" into 180 degrees, or "0" into 90 degrees and "1" into 270 degrees, alternating between the two options on successive bits. 1, record 2, English, - aviation%2DQPSK

Forme particulière de modulation par déplacement de phase en quadrature décalée, utilisée dans le SMAS [service mobile aéronautique par satellite] pour des débits supérieurs à 2,4 kbit/s. Selon la technique de modulation A-QPSK, «0» correspond à 0 degré et «1» à 180 degrés, ou bien «0» correspond à 90 degrés et «1» à 270 degrés, et ces deux options alternent d'un bit au suivant. 1, record 2, French, - modulation%20par%20d%C3%A9placement%20de%20phase%20en%20quadrature%20%2D%20aviation

As a result the amplitude does not cross zero, and this reduces the peak to average ratio. This has advantages for power amplifiers because it reduces the peak to average ratio and as a result it is used in the reverse link for CDMA [code division multiple access] transmissions. 1, record 3, English, - offset%20quadrature%20phase%20shift%20keying
