JT9 is designed for making minimally valid QSOs at LF, MF, and HF. It
|
|||
|
|
uses 72-bit structured messages nearly identical (at the user level)
|
|||
|
|
to those in JT65. Error control coding (ECC) uses a strong
|
|||
|
|
convolutional code with constraint length K=32, rate r=1/2, and a zero
|
|||
|
|
tail, leading to an encoded message length of (72+31) × 2 = 206
|
|||
|
|
information-carrying bits. Modulation is nine-tone frequency-shift
|
|||
|
|
keying, 9-FSK. Eight tones are used for data, one for
|
|||
|
|
synchronization. Eight data tones means that three data bits are
|
|||
|
|
conveyed by each transmitted information symbol. Sixteen symbol
|
|||
|
|
intervals are devoted to synchronization, so a transmission requires a
|
|||
|
|
total of 206 / 3 + 16 = 85 (rounded up) channel symbols. The sync
|
|||
|
|
symbols are those numbered 1, 2, 5, 10, 16, 23, 33, 35, 51, 52, 55,
|
|||
|
|
60, 66, 73, 83, and 85 in the transmitted sequence. Each symbol lasts
|
|||
|
|
for 6912 sample intervals at 12000 samples per second, or about 0.576
|
|||
|
|
seconds. Tone spacing of the 9-FSK modulation is 12000/6912 = 1.736
|
|||
|
|
Hz, the inverse of the symbol duration. The total occupied bandwidth
|
|||
|
|
is 9 × 1.736 = 15.6 Hz.
