Hi everybody I'm trying to find a frequency correction burst of gsm. This Burst is due to GMSK Modulation 67,7 kHz obove the carrier and unmodulated. I've got an older Nokia cell phone with some monitoring software where I can read out the arfcns the phone sees and thus the frequencies of the BCCH

The effect we observe doesn't seem to be a non linear effect due to high signal amplitude. Lowering the amplitude doesn't solve the problem. For example, when we transmit a 1 MHz tone we can see that a spurious tone appears at -3 MHz (referred to the carrier frequency) when using an interpolation r
