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.
