With improvement of the automation level, wireless sensors are widely used, but various kinds of interference lead to problems in the application. In order to deal with co-channel interference, a throughput efficient scheme based on Extended Binary Phase Shift Keying (EBPSK) modulation is introduced in physical layer. On this basis, the corresponding transmission scheme and the important impacting filter are presented. Effects of co-channel interference on the EBPSK waveform in different cases are analyzed. Simulation results illustrate the excellent anti-interference performance of the EBPSK system itself, when the initial phase of the co-channel interference is small.
