### Supported Modes
All modes need a bandwidth of 2400 Hz and use a 1/2-rate forward error correction code
All modes need a bandwidth of 2400 Hz.
These use a differential modulation scheme:
* Mode 0: DBPSK, 2.6 seconds and 256 bytes
* Mode 1: DQPSK, 2.6 seconds and 512 bytes
* Mode 2: D8PSK, 3.4 seconds and 1024 bytes
These are the durations for each differential modulation scheme:
And these a coherent modulation scheme:
* Mode 3: BPSK, 2.6 seconds and 256 bytes
* Mode 4: QPSK, 2.6 seconds and 512 bytes
* Mode 5: QAM16, 1 second and 256 bytes
* Mode 6: QAM16, 2.6 seconds and 1024 bytes
* Mode 7: QAM64, 3.4 seconds and 2048 bytes
| Modulation | Short | Normal |
| ---------- | ----- | ------ |
| DBPSK | 1.5s | 2.6s |
| DQPSK | 1.0s | 1.5s |
| D8PSK | 1.9s | 3.4s |
And these are the durations for each coherent modulation scheme:
| Modulation | Short | Normal |
| ---------- | ----- | ------ |
| QAM16 | 1.0s | 1.5s |
| QAM64 | 1.9s | 3.4s |
| QAM256 | 1.5s | 2.6s |
| QAM1024 | 2.2s | 4.0s |
| QAM4096 | 1.9s | 3.4s |
Currently all digital modes use a 1/2-rate forward error correction code.
Therefore we have the following byte payloads for each modulation:
| Modulation | Short | Normal |
| ---------- | ----- | ------ |
| DBPSK | 128B | 256B |
| DQPSK | 128B | 256B |
| D8PSK | 512B | 1024B |
| QAM16 | 256B | 512B |
| QAM64 | 1024B | 2048B |
| QAM256 | 1024B | 2048B |
| QAM1024 | 2048B | 4096B |
| QAM4096 | 2048B | 4096B |
Which give us the following bitrates for each modulation:
| Modulation | Short | Normal |
| ---------- | ------- | ------- |
| DBPSK | 681b/s | 789b/s |
| DQPSK | 1070b/s | 1362b/s |
| D8PSK | 2141b/s | 2398b/s |
| QAM16 | 2141b/s | 2725b/s |
| QAM64 | 4282b/s | 4795b/s |
| QAM256 | 5449b/s | 6310b/s |
| QAM1024 | 7493b/s | 8268b/s |
| QAM4096 | 8563b/s | 9591b/s |
