5.5 Mbps Data Rate with CCK Modulation
The standard specifies CCK modulation (complementary code keying) for a data rate
of 5.5
Mbps. To this end, in each modulation step, four successive bits (d
0
to d
3
) are
taken from the data stream which is already scrambled. The phases
φ
1
,
φ
2
,
φ
3
,
φ
4
are
determined by these four bits.
φ
1
is determined by the data bits d
0
and d
1
according to the following table, which
specifies different phases for even and odd modulation steps:

The phase

must be interpreted relative to the phase of the previous symbol.
The other three phases are determined as follows:
φ

= (d

- pi ) + pi/2

By means of these four phases, the CCK code word can now be determined; it is:
