Signal transmission apparatus, carrier phase recovery apparatus and method

Abstract

Embodiments of this disclosure provide a signal transmission apparatus, a carrier phase recovery apparatus and method. By inserting phase modulation signals with variable amplitudes into data modulation signals and performing carrier phase recovery on received signals at a receiving end according to the phase modulation signals, the apparatuses and methods are applicable to communications systems of various modulation formats and are compatible with existing communications systems, and calculation complexity is relatively low. Furthermore, as the amplitudes of the inserted phase modulation signals are variable, the phase modulation signals may be flexibly configured in data modulation signals, to lower redundancy and influence on the system capacity is relatively small.
