Performance analysis of FSO using relays and spatial diversity under log-normal fading channel
The performance analysis of free space optical communication (FSO) system
using relays and spatial diversity at the source is studied in this paper. The
effect of atmospheric turbulence and attenuation, caused by different weather
conditions and geometric losses, has also been considered for analysis. The
exact closed-form expressions are presented for bit error rate (BER) of M-ary
quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) technique for multi-hop multiple-input
single-output (MISO) FSO system under log-normal fading channel. Furthermore,
the link performance of multi-hop MISO and multi-hop single-input and
single-output (SISO) FSO systems are compared to the different systems using
on-off keying (OOK), repetition codes (RCs) and M-ary pulse amplitude
modulation (M-PAM) techniques. A significant performance enhancement in terms
of BER analysis and SNR gains is shown for multi-hop MISO and multi-hop SISO
FSO systems with M-QAM over other existing systems with different modulation
schemes. Moreover, Monte-Carlo simulations are used to validate the accuracy
and consistency of the derived analytical results. Numerical results show that
M-QAM modulated multi-hop MISO and multi-hop SISO FSO system with relays and
spatial diversity outperforms other systems while having the same spectral
efficiency of each system.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, 4th International Conference on Electrical Energy

Modulation Diversity in Fading Channels with Quantized Receiver
In this paper, we address the design of codes which achieve modulation
diversity in block fading single-input single-output (SISO) channels with
signal quantization at receiver and low-complexity decoding. With an
unquantized receiver, coding based on algebraic rotations is known to achieve
modulation coding diversity. On the other hand, with a quantized receiver,
algebraic rotations may not guarantee diversity. Through analysis, we propose
specific rotations which result in the codewords having equidistant
component-wise projections. We show that the proposed coding scheme achieves
maximum modulation diversity with a low-complexity minimum distance decoder and
perfect channel knowledge. Relaxing the perfect channel knowledge assumption we
propose a novel training/estimation and receiver control technique to estimate
the channel. We show that our coding/training/estimation scheme and minimum
distance decoding achieve an error probability performance similar to that
achieved with perfect channel knowledge
Design guidelines for spatial modulation
A new class of low-complexity, yet energyefficient Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) transmission techniques, namely the family of Spatial Modulation (SM) aided MIMOs (SM-MIMO) has emerged. These systems are capable of exploiting the spatial dimensions (i.e. the antenna indices) as an additional dimension invoked for transmitting information, apart from the traditional Amplitude and Phase Modulation (APM). SM is capable of efficiently operating in diverse MIMO configurations in the context of future communication systems. It constitutes a promising transmission candidate for large-scale MIMO design and for the indoor optical wireless communication whilst relying on a single-Radio Frequency (RF) chain. Moreover, SM may also be viewed as an entirely new hybrid modulation scheme, which is still in its infancy. This paper aims for providing a general survey of the SM design framework as well as of its intrinsic limits. In particular, we focus our attention on the associated transceiver design, on spatial constellation optimization, on link adaptation techniques, on distributed/ cooperative protocol design issues, and on their meritorious variants
High-Rate Space-Time Coded Large MIMO Systems: Low-Complexity Detection and Channel Estimation
In this paper, we present a low-complexity algorithm for detection in
high-rate, non-orthogonal space-time block coded (STBC) large-MIMO systems that
achieve high spectral efficiencies of the order of tens of bps/Hz. We also
present a training-based iterative detection/channel estimation scheme for such
large STBC MIMO systems. Our simulation results show that excellent bit error
rate and nearness-to-capacity performance are achieved by the proposed
multistage likelihood ascent search (M-LAS) detector in conjunction with the
proposed iterative detection/channel estimation scheme at low complexities. The
fact that we could show such good results for large STBCs like 16x16 and 32x32
STBCs from Cyclic Division Algebras (CDA) operating at spectral efficiencies in
excess of 20 bps/Hz (even after accounting for the overheads meant for pilot
based training for channel estimation and turbo coding) establishes the
effectiveness of the proposed detector and channel estimator. We decode perfect
codes of large dimensions using the proposed detector. With the feasibility of
such a low-complexity detection/channel estimation scheme, large-MIMO systems
with tens of antennas operating at several tens of bps/Hz spectral efficiencies
can become practical, enabling interesting high data rate wireless
applications.Comment: v3: Performance/complexity comparison of the proposed scheme with
other large-MIMO architectures/detectors has been added (Sec. IV-D). The
paper has been accepted for publication in IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in
