Digital
Modulation in Communications Systems - An
Introduction (PDF) - A
superb, comprehensive tutorial that
covers most RF modulation types including
PSK, BPSK, QPSK, DQPSK, OQPSK, FSK, MSK,
GMSK, and QAM. Also covers a number of
related issues such as intersymbol
interference, pulse shaping,
signal-to-noise ratio, and bit error
rate. (Agilent application note AN 1298.)
Angle
and Pulse Modulation - An
outstanding online course covering pulse
modulation, PSK, and FSK that starts from
scratch and builds up to near-expert
level material
Principles
of Digital Modulation (PDF) - By
Dr. Mike Fitton. Covers most RF
modulation types. Written in a summary
format, with mostly diagrams and bulleted
text.

Digital
Modulation and GMSK (PDF) -
Explores the logical path from the
elementary BPSK modulation scheme, to
QPSK, to OQPSK, to MSK, and finally to
GMSK modulation.

OFDM
(PDF) -
Masters thesis by James Shen and Mathew
Liu. This 90 page report quite thoroughly
covers the theory, math, and history
behind OFDM. It is unique in that it
starts by giving a brief overview of each
of the mathematical concepts required for
understanding OFDM. You can skip those
sections if you already have a strong
math background. While the report is
long, it is laid out in a logical manner
and includes a useful table of contents
you can use to quickly find precisely
what you're looking for. Lots of figures
and graphs make it easy to understand.
Interactive
OFDM Tutorial Applet - This
is a fun-to-use Java applet that allows
you to do things such as adjust taps of
an FIR filter that simulates the
introduction of intersymbol interference.
But it may not go into as great of depth
on OFDM as you might wish.
