  This study revokes the performance of continuous phase modulation (CPM) able
to generate a single-sideband (SSB) spectrum directly. This signal is analyzed
in terms of modulation indices, pulse lengths, and pulse widths, all of which
affect error probability, bandwidth, SSB property, and receiver complexity. The
error probability performance is based on an approximation of the minimum
Euclidean distance. A numerical power spectral density calculation for this
particular SSB modulation in terms of modulation index is presented. Reasonable
tradeoffs in designing modulation schemes have been proposed using
multi-objective optimization to ensure sizable improvements in bit error rate
(BER), spectral efficiencies, and complexity without losing the property of
being a SSB signal. Performance comparisons are made with known CPM schemes,
e.g., Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK) and Raised Cosine based CPM (RC)
