Résumé : We present a new symbol block construction which yields a cyclic continuous phase modulated (CPM) signal to enable frequency domain equalization. It is known that in addition to a cyclic prefix, a subblock of data-dependent symbols has to be inserted in each block to cope with the memory in the CPM signal. We propose a new subblock, called intrafix, valid for any CPM scheme. Our intrafix is shorter than what is currently known in the literature, reducing the overhead. Moreover, it can be calculated on a per-block basis, without knowledge of previous blocks. We also prove that there are constraints on the length of both the intrafix and the total block by studying the influence of the modulation index. Simulation results in a 60 GHz environment show that our new block construction satisfies all requirements.
