5.15 On-Off Keying (OOK)

The data modulator can also provide OOK (On-Off Keying) modulation. OOK is an ASK (Amplitude Shift Keying) modulation using 100% modulation depth. OOK modulation is enabled in RX and in TX by setting TXDEV_M[3:0] = 0000 in the DEVIATION register. An OOK eye diagram is shown in Figure 5-29.

The data demodulator can also perform OOK demodulation. The demodulation is done by comparing the signal level with the “carrier sense” level (programmed as CS_LEVEL in the VGA4 register). The signal is then decimated and filtered in the data filter. Data decision and bit synchronization are as for FSK reception.

In this mode, AGC_AVG in the VGA2 register must be set to 3. The channel bandwidth must be 4 times the Baud rate for data rates up to 9.6 kBaud. For the highest data rates the channel bandwidth must be 2 times the Baud rate (see Table 5-14). Manchester coding must always be used for OOK.

NOTE

The automatic frequency control (AFC) cannot be used when receiving OOK, as it requires a frequency shift.

The AGC has a certain time-constant determined by FILTER_CLK, which depends on the IF filter bandwidth. There is a lower limit on FILTER_CLK and hence the AGC time constant. For very low data rates the minimum time constant is too fast and the AGC will increase the gain when a “0” is received and decrease the gain when a “1” is received. For this reason the minimum data rate in OOK is 2.4 kBaud.

Typical figures for the receiver sensitivity (BER = 10–3) are shown in Table 5-14 for OOK.
