기존의 웨이브릿 편이 변조 시스템은 스케일링 함수(scaling function)를 1로, 웨이브릿(wavelet)을 0으로 하는 1비트 변조방법이 있고, 스케일링 함수와 웨이브릿 그리고 이 두 신호를 반전시켜서 생성된 4개의 반송파를 사용하는 2비트 변조방법이 있다. 본 논문에서는 2비트 변조방법인 4-ary 스케일링 웨이브릿 편이변조(4-ary SWSK : 4-ary scaling wavelet shift keying) 시스템을 정의하고, QPSK 시스템으로부터 정의된 시스템의 비트 에러 확률과 부호 에러 확률을 유도한다. 제안한 4-ary SWSK 성능을 분석하기 위하여, 기존의 QPSK(quadrature phase shift keying), MFSK(M-ary frequency shift keying), 그리고 제안한 방법의 비트 에러 확률 및 부호 에러 확률을 구한다. 실험결과 제안한 방법의 비트 에러 확률과 부호 에러 확률이 좋은 성능을 보였다. An algorithm of the conventional wavelet shift keying is carried out that the scaling function and wavelet are encoded to 1(mark) and 0(space) for the input binary data, respectively. Two bit modulation technique which uses four carrier frequencies is existed. Four carrier frequencies are defined as scaling function, inversed scaling function, wavelet, and inversed wavelet, which are encoded to 10, 11, 00 and 01, respectively. In this paper, we defined 4-ary SWSK (4-ary scaling wavelet shift keying) which is two bit modulation, and it is derived to the probability of bit error and symbol error of the defined system from QPSK. In order to analyze to the performance of 4-ary SWSK, we are obtained in terms of the probability of bit error and symbol error for QPSK (quadrature phase shift keying), MFSK(M-ary frequency shift keying) and proposed method. As a results of simulation, we confirmed that the proposed method was superior to the performance in terms of the probability of bit error and symbol error.

In this paper, an enhanced scheme of Index Modulation for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (IM-OFDM), called Repeated IM-OFDM with Diversity Reception (ReIM-OFDM) is proposed. ReIM-OFDM achieves performance improvement over the convetional IM-OFDM at the same spectral efficiency by providing additional space and frequency diversity. Similar to IM-OFDM, the proposed ReIM-OFDM also activates K out of total N subcarriers to convey information bits using both the active sub-carriers and their indices. However, it differs from IM-OFDM in that all activated sub-carriers are modulated by the same M-ary data symbol. For signal combining, either Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) or Selection Combining (SC) can be used in the spatial and sub-carriers domain to help ReIM-OFDM achieve both space and frequency diversity gain. In order to analyze performance of the system, the Moment Generating Function (MGF) is used to obtain the closed-form expressions for the pairwise index error probability (PEP) and the symbol error probability (SEP) in both cases: ReIM-OFDM-MRC and ReIM-OFDM-SC. Effects of various system parameters on the SEP are analyzed to select the best ReIM-OFDM configuration with minimum error probability. Our analysis proves the effectiveness of ReIM-OFDM over IM-OFDM at the same spectral efficiency.

The authors analyze incoherent detection of trellis-coded continuous-phase M-ary FSK, using M quadrature receivers and trellis decoding. The upper bounds on the bit error rate as well as the 99% energy bandwidths are given for the codes under consideration. In particular, the authors consider trellis codes with rates of 1/2 and 2/3 with symmetric and asymmetric signal constellations. The upper bounds on the probability of error are obtained for symmetric and optimum asymmetric signal constellations. The optimum asymmetry is one which minimizes the probability of bit error. The performance of this system is compared with that of standard continuous-phase modulation techniques (MSK, duobinary, and TFM) using noncoherent detection. >

Non-binary forward error correction (FEC) coding in conjunction with M-ary hyper phase-shift keying (MHPSK) is considered in order to improve the robustness of a satellite communications uplink. MHPSK is a spectrally efficient modulation technique that uses four orthonormal basis functions to increase the distance between different symbols in the signal space. Spectral efficiency and probability of bit error are two key figures of merit used to evaluate digital modulation techniques. The use of four orthonormal basis functions provides an advantage over traditional modulation techniques such as M-ary phase-shift keying (MPSK) and M-ary quadrature amplitude keying (MQAM) that only possess two degrees of freedom. MHPSK offers an improvement in bit error performance over other spectrally efficient modulation techniques for the same average energy per bit-to-noise power spectral density ratio and similar spectral efficiency. As a result, MHPSK offers a novel way to improve both throughput and reduce power requirements using easy to generate waveforms. In this paper, Reed Solomon coded symbols are assumed to be transmitted with MHPSK. MHPSK, MPSK, and MQAM are compared in terms of probability of bit error and bandwidth efficiency, where the number of bits per coded symbol are typically designed to match the number of bits per channel symbol.

In this paper, two novel adaptive spatial scattering modulation (ASSM) algorithms, namely unequal transmission probability-based ASSM (UTP-ASSM) and equal transmission probability-based ASSM (ETP-ASSM), are proposed to pursue a better tradeoff between the computational complexity and spectral efficiency. According to available channel state information, the proposed ASSM algorithms are conducted to compute the optimal numbers of scatters and the optimal modulation orders constrained by the maximal tolerable symbol error probability (SEP). In addition, the minimal tolerate value of the minimal tolerant signal-to-noise ratio and SEP threshold are computed with a given data rate requirement by the bisection algorithm. At the receiver, a new type of optimal maximum likelihood detector is proposed to enhance the SEP performance. Furthermore, the union upper bound on the SEP is derived and analyzed. In addition, the computational complexity and system performance of the ASSM schemes are analyzed. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed ASSM algorithms yield a lower SEP than the conventional spatial scattering modulation at the same value of average data rate.

Based on imperfect channel state information (CSI) and relay selection, a cross-layer optimization scheme is developed for cooperative MIMO system, and the corresponding system performance is investigated in Rayleigh fading channel. By the theoretical analysis and mathematical manipulation, the average spectral efficiency (SE), packet error rate (PER) and packet loss rate (PLR) are derived. As a result, closed-form expressions of the average SE, PER and PLR are obtained, respectively. According to these, a cross-layer design (CLD) scheme subject to the average PER constraints is proposed to avoid the SE performance loss caused by the conventional instantaneous PER constraints. The scheme optimizes the adaptive thresholds by maximizing the average SE of the system, and an iteration method joint the Lagrange multiplier and Newton methods is presented to solve the above optimization problem. Simulation results verify the validity of the theoretical analysis. The results show that the proposed CLD scheme can improve the SE while target PLR is maintained. The CLD scheme under average PER constraints has higher SE than the conventional CLD scheme under instantaneous PER constraints.

Enhanced connectivity through double RIS uplink MIMO and advanced modulation

Given K simultaneously active users, an Optical CDMA (OCDMA) receiver needs to discriminate among K codes. Since the number of available codes C is always C Gt K at any given time for any truly asynchronous OCDMA system that employs quasi-orthogonal codes, there is always a set of unused codes. We here propose to exploit these unused codes to increase the spectral efficiency of the system. This can be accomplished by exclusively assigning to each user a set of M codes which represent a log2(M)-tuple of bits so that each user effectively uses a multi-dimensional modulation (multiple information bits per code are conveyed). In this paper, we analyze the performance of such a system and find in closed form an upper bound on the average probability of error. Moreover, we report for the first time that, under lightly loaded, non interference-limited conditions, the multi-dimensional OCDMA scheme here proposed allows us to obtain both higher spectral efficiency and lower bit- error probability (BEP) than a conventional OCDMA system, which employs one code only per user. The analysis here presented allow us to formulate a useful system design criterion that yields truly asynchronous OCDMA systems with very high spectral efficiency.

In the article, a new topical scientific task is solved regarding the assessment of the impact of the error of the synchronization system of the coherent demodulator on the immunity of signals with multi-position phase manipulation. The probability of a bit error is proposed in the article as a criterion for evaluating the immunity of coherent reception of signals with multi-position phase modulation in the presence of a phase error. A model for evaluating the effect of the error of the coherent demodulator synchronization system on the bit error probabilities of signals with multi-position phase manipulation is developed and presented. The presented model is based on the probabilistic characteristics of the appearance of a bit error of a signal with multi-positional phase modulation relative to the accepted level of the phase error of the coherent demodulator at different values of the signal-to-noise ratio at the input of the coherent receiver for signals with different positions. The results of the evaluation of the probability characteristics of the appearance of a bit error in a signal with multi-positional phase modulation in the presence of a phase error of a coherent demodulator showed that with an increase in the positionality of the BFM signal, the influence of static and random errors of the synchronization system on the probability of bit errors increases. At large signal-to-noise ratios, a small phase estimation error, from π/180 to π/90, leads to a significant increase in the probability of bit errors. With random phase fluctuations for signals with M ≥ 4, when the variance Dϕ changes from 0 to 0.01, the error probability can be changed by one or two orders of magnitude. The obtained results allow us to come to the conclusion that during the reception of BFM signals, the permissible value of the carrier phase estimation error depends on the positionality of M and varies from π/36 – π/72 for 2-FM to π/180 for 32-FM.

In this paper, improvements in symbol error probability (SEP)/bit error probability (BEP) performance of rotated phase shift keying (PSK) modulation using receive antenna diversity (combining) techniques are studied over frequency nonselective Nakagami-m slowly fading channels. Optimum rotation angles are obtained by the simulations. Effects of the rotation of signal consellations on the combining techniques (CT) are studied.

By combining adaptive modulation (AM) and automatic repeat request (ARQ) protocol, cross-layer design (CLD) scheme of multiuser MIMO system with antenna selection (AS) is presented. By means of exact expression of packet error rate (PER), the switching thresholds (STs) of fading gain subject to a target PER constraint are derived, which is more accurate than the conventional STs based on approximate PER expression. According to these results, and using mathematical manipulation, we obtain the tightly closed-form expressions of the average spectral efficiency (SE) and average PER. Simulation results show that the multiuser MIMO system with CLD-AS scheme using the derived STs provides higher SE than that using existing approximate STs while meeting the PER requirement. Besides, simulations for average SE and PER are in good agreement with the derived theoretical expressions, which demonstrates the validity of the theoretical analysis.

Concerning the problem between the optimality and efficiency of the relay selection algorithm,an algorithm of the relay selection based on fast symbol error probability was proposed in Amplify-and-Forward(AF) cooperative networks.First,with the equal power allocation,and based on the statistic channel information and symbol error probability of the system,an equivalent channel gain was brought in.The parameter described the compositive channel character of two phases that were the source node to relay node as well as relay node to the destination in the cooperative process.Then with the descending order of the parameter,the Signal-to-Noise Ratio(SNR) could be taken as the threshold,and different relay node set was chosen to minimize the symbol error probability in case of equal power allocation.And combined with the near optimal power allocation,the proposed scheme further reduced the symbol error probability.As shown in the simulation results,the error probability performance of this relay selection scheme is similar to the optimal full-search scheme but the complexity is reduced to at least 1/20 of the latter one.And it also shows that the error probability of the proposed scheme is lower than the other schemes such as all participating amplify-and-forward(AP-AF) relay selection and pre-select single relay amplify-and-forward(S-AF) relay selection.

This paper considers the performance analysis of constructive interference (CI) precoding technique in multi-user multiple-input single-output (MU-MISO) systems with a finite constellation phase-shift keying (PSK) input alphabet. Firstly, analytical expressions for the moment generating function (MGF) and the average of the received signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) are derived. Then, based on the derived MGF expression the average symbol error probability (SEP) for the CI precoder with PSK signaling is calculated. In this regard, new exact and very accurate asymptotic approximation for the average SEP are provided. Building on the new performance analysis, different power allocation schemes are considered to enhance the achieved SEP. In the first scheme, power allocation based on minimizing the sum symbol error probabilities (Min-Sum) is studied, while in the second scheme the power allocation based on minimizing the maximum SEP (Min-Max) is investigated. Furthermore, new analytical expressions of the throughput and power efficiency of the CI precoding in MU-MISO systems are also derived. The numerical results in this work demonstrate that, the CI precoding outperforms the conventional interference suppression precoding techniques with an up to 20 dB gain in the transmit SNR in terms of SEP, and up to 15 dB gain in the transmit SNR in terms of the throughput. In addition, the SEP-based power allocation schemes provide additional up to 13 dB gains in the transmit SNR compared to the conventional equal power allocation scheme.

In recent years, due to the rapid convergence of multimedia services, Internet and wireless communications, there has been a growing trend of heterogeneity (in terms of channel bandwidths, mobility levels of terminals, end-user quality-of-service (QoS) requirements) for emerging integrated wired/wireless networks. Moreover, in nowadays systems, a multitude of users coexists within the same network, each of them with his own QoS requirement and bandwidth availability. In this framework, embedded source coding allowing partial decoding at various resolution is an appealing technique for multimedia transmissions. This dissertation includes my PhD research, mainly devoted to the study of embedded multimedia bitstreams in heterogenous networks, developed at the University of Bologna, advised by Prof. O. Andrisano and Prof. A. Conti, and at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), where I spent eighteen months as a visiting scholar, advised by Prof. L. B. Milstein and Prof. P. C. Cosman. In order to improve the multimedia transmission quality over wireless channels, joint source and channel coding optimization is investigated in a 2D time-frequency resource block for an OFDM system. We show that knowing the order of diversity in time and/or frequency domain can assist image (video) coding in selecting optimal channel code rates (source and channel code rates). Then, adaptive modulation techniques, aimed at maximizing the spectral efficiency, are investigated as another possible solution for improving multimedia transmissions. For both slow and fast adaptive modulations, the effects of imperfect channel estimation errors are evaluated, showing that the fast technique, optimal in ideal systems, might be outperformed by the slow adaptive modulation, when a real test case is considered. Finally, the effects of co-channel interference and approximated bit error probability (BEP) are evaluated in adaptive modulation techniques, providing new decision regions concepts, and showing how the widely used BEP approximations lead to a substantial loss in the overall performance.

An efficient network is critical to support the rapid growth in traffic on mobile networks, since current network PCS1900 (2G) cannot support such a huge demand. The objective of the third-generation (3G) UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System) of wireless communication is to provide high speed wireless communication to support multimedia, large data, and video. However, the co-existence of the two mobile radio systems (PCS1900 and UMTS) which share the same frequency band leads to a major issue. A serious issue of co-existence occurs when the downlink of the system is closer to the frequency bands of the concerned system. The PCS-1900 downlink band (1,930-1,990) and WCDMA (UMTS) uplink band (1,920-1,980) widely overlap, which causes interference between UMTS mobile unit and PCS-1900 base station. Therefore the objectives of this paper is to study the effect from PCS 1900 base station interference on UMTS mobile unit performance in terms of the probability of bit error by developing the Probability of bit error equation of DSS-QPSK from the existing Probability of bit error equation. This paper also evaluates the degradation of UMTS mobile unit performance in terms of probability of bit error when the system is interfered by PCS1900 base station.
