FreeDV Coherent PSKPhase-Shift Keying (Also known as FreeDV 700) is a robust Digital Voice mode developed by David Rowe for his FreeDV Digital Voice Software. The 14-subcarrier QPSKQuadrature Phase-Shift Keying (2 bits per symbol) mode uses pilot symbol assisted coherent PSKPhase-Shift Keying, whereas FDMDV uses differential PSKPhase-Shift Keying. Coherent PSKPhase-Shift Keying is more robust against bit errors than differential PSKPhase-Shift Keying. This mode has 14 subcarriers, but it's actually 7 75bd subcarriers duplicated to form the full 14, so there is strong redundancy. The entire system runs at 700 bit/sBits per second (bps), using the 700 bit/sBits per second (bps) Codec 2 voice codec developed by Rowe.

This mode is currently in active development, so details may change significantly as development continues.

Newer developments & updates to this signal[edit]

The upper modes are being phased out for a newer encoding method, which are also unable to be decoded. The older methods are no longer in use anymore.


4 New signals have been added and replaced by higher baudBaud (unit symbol Bd) is the unit for symbol rate or modulation rate in symbols per second. rates of 1600b/s, including two special 700b/s modes known as "700C" and "700D", and the neural network fed "2020" version. 700D and 2020 can both use coherent QPSKQuadrature Phase-Shift Keying (2 bits per symbol) but can be switched to DQPSKDifferential Quadrature Phase-Shift Keying to enable better sync at fast fading on HFHigh Frequency (3-30 MHz).

Waterfalls and Recordings will follow later.
