Abstract

Phase noise presents a serious impairment in modern telecommunication systems and may degrade the receiver performance significantly. Passing the signal containing the phase noise through a filter can help in recovering some of the lost performance, but it presents a difficulty for system design and analysis as the output signal is governed by a Fokker-Planck equation. This paper presents a method for approximating the process and provides a numerical method for solving the equation.
