Costas Loops

Discusses in detail all existing variants of Costas loops, including their dynamic behavior;

Links theory and practice by including design procedures and Simulink models for every type of Costas loop

Describes all relevant modulation schemes used in Costas loops, such as BPSK (binary phase shift keying), QPSK (quadrature phase shift keying), mPSK (m-ary phase shift keying), and QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation)
