Due to difficulties in manufacturing, data conversion devices with extremely high sampling rate are becoming the bottleneck in realising high-speed communication systems with a large bandwidth. Dual pulse shaping (DPS) transmission allows half-symbol-rate conversion devices to be used for two parallel data streams to achieve full-rate transmission, and is proved to be an effective solution. Here, two sets of ideal sinc-function based complementary Nyquist pulses for DPS transmission are proposed. Theoretically, it is shown that the proposed pulses satisfy the inter-symbol and cross-symbol interference-free conditions, and can achieve full-Nyquist-rate transmission with half of the sampling rate. With reference to commercially available D/As, two sets of practical dual spectral shaping pulses are further proposed, and the close relationship between the ideal and practical pulses are disclosed. Performance analysis for linear equalisation is provided in the presence of both timing offset between dual shaping pulses and carrier-frequency offset. Two approaches are then proposed to improve the system robustness by adjusting the clock phase of the D/As and A/Ds. Simulation results are presented to provide a comparison between the proposed DPS transmission schemes and the state of the art, in terms of the performance metrics of peak-to-average power ratio and bit error rate.
