DQPSK (Differential QPSKQuadrature phase shift keying) is a differential modulation format where the bits for a given symbol are determined by the phase change from the previous symbol.

There are four possible phase state transitions (0, pi, and +/-(pi/2) radians) therefore each symbol represents log2(4) = 2 bits of data.
