In this thesis, we proposed a bursty DQPSK demodulator which can be used in HFC system uplink. The key component of the demodulator, burst timing recovery, is implemented as a clock phase correlator. The advantages of the clock phase correlator are short acquisition time and minimum jitter. The function of clock phase correlator was verified in a system simulation. The demodulator was implemented using FPGA. Finally, by using commercial QPSK modem chips in an actual cable modem, we have successfully demonstratedthe modem's upstream transmission functions.
