I'm not sure what you mean by digital to analog modulation, but QPSK
is very commonly used, as are BPSK, 8PSK, and m-QAM, and all are
generally applied with pulse shaping, usually with
Square-Root-Raised-Cosine filters in both the modulator and
demodulator.

Hi all. I am starting out on signal processing. Conceptionally I think I
understand the advantages of pulse shaping and raised cosine. But I am not
clear where this is used in practice. Is pulse shaping just used on purely
digital transmission i.e. A pulse train. Or is it combined with digital to
analog modulation. E.g. QPSK. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Steve.
