I am engaging in a project of Bluetooth Modem design. I found a problem about the channel selection in the low-IF (1MHz ). Compared to GFSK, both DQPSK and D8PSK, in which symbol rate is 1MHz, have wider bandwidth. Due to 1MHz channel spacing, as for DQPSK and D8PSK, some parts of frequency components of the wanted signal are contaminated by the adjacent signals. In this case, many BPFs I have tried get a very bad BER performance, which cannot meet the Bluetooth requirement (BER < 0.1%).

How can I choose a correct band pass filter to get a positive channel selection? Or what else I need to fix? (The Nyquist filter (squared root raised cosine filter) parameters include 0.4 rolloff and 0.5MHz cutoff frequency, sampling rate is 8MHz).
