differential phase-shift keying (′dif·ə′ren·chÉ™l ′fÄz ′shift ′kē·iÅ‹) (communications) Form of phase-shift keying in which the reference phase for a given keying interval is the phase of the signal during the preceding keying interval. Also known as differentially coherent phase-shift keying.

Pros of differential phase shift keying (DPSK) include improved noise immunity compared to regular phase shift keying (PSK) because it changes signal phase differentially rather than absolutely. Cons include more complex demodulation due to the need to compare the current and previous signal phases for decoding. Additionally, DPSK may have higher bit error rates in certain scenarios.
DPSK (Differential Phase Shift Keying) is more robust against phase fluctuations during transmission compared to PSK (Phase Shift Keying). It eliminates the need for a phase reference, making it more suitable for noisy channels. Additionally, DPSK can provide better error performance in certain scenarios compared to PSK.
BPSK=> 1.The BPSK stands for “Binary Phase-shift keying”. 2.DPSK is a not a method of BPSK, where there is no reference phase signal. 3.amplitude shift keying 4.lesser bandwidth more probability error DPSK=> 1.The DPSK stands for “Differential phase-shift keying”. 2.DPSK is a method of BPSK, where there is no reference phase signal. 3.It is one type of phase modulation used to transmit data by altering the carrier wave’s phase. 4.greater bandwidth probability error less

The advantage of a binary phase-shift keying is that within a given bandwidth, modulation of higher orders allow to carry higher rates.
8 phase shift keying is a complex form of digital modulation by altering a sine wave and a cosine wave: shifting their phase. The best explanations I have found so far can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-shift_keying and http://www.sss-mag.com/pdf/1modulation.pdf But they all explain the more simpler forms of phase shift keying: Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) and Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) and they don't say much about 8PSK unfortunately. However this might still give you an idea. Good luck, I will keep searching myself. Karen von Hünerbein

The acronym "BPSK" stands for burst pulse shift keying. Burst pulse shift keying is the simplest form of phase shift keying or PSK known currently to exist.
Generation and detection of QPSK is complex.
In absolute phase shift keying (PSK), the signal varies in phase relative to a reference phase, which remains constant for each symbol. In differential PSK, the phase difference between consecutive symbols is used to encode data, without referencing an absolute phase. This makes differential PSK more robust to phase shifts caused by factors such as variations in the transmission medium.
