Thanks for the help. I will convert my real signal to the analytic
signal that has one-sided frequency content. The signal I would like
to transmit is a baseband sinc pulse. Meaning its frequency content is
centered around DC. Please correct me if I am wrong here. To convert
this to analytic, I need to multiply it by exp(-jwt). I believe this
is enough to convert this to analytic signal. I know for a passband
signal I can use hilbert transform to generate analytic signal.

I will try this first before exploring the use of PLL as suggested by Johnathan.

Thanks,

Faisal
