Abstract
We investigate the performance of quadrature-duobinary (QDB) modulation with both maximum-likelihood-sequence-estimation and symbol-by-symbol detection and show that QDB can achieve better performance than 8-ary quadrature-amplitude modulation (8QAM) and 16QAM at a 4-b/s/Hz spectral efficiency.
