ISI-Free Power Roll-Off Pulse

SUMMARY An ISI-free power roll-off pulse, the roll-off characteristic of which is tunable with one power parameter, is proposed. It is shown that the proposed pulse is advantageous in terms of the probability of error for pulse detection in the presence of a timing error among currently known good pulses, among which the raised cosine pulse, " better than " raised cosine pulse, and polynomial p...
