Media-Based MIMO: A New Frontier in Wireless Communications
The idea of Media-based Modulation (MBM), is based on embedding information
in the variations of the transmission media (channel state). This is in
contrast to legacy wireless systems where data is embedded in a Radio Frequency
(RF) source prior to the transmit antenna. MBM offers several advantages vs.
legacy systems, including "additivity of information over multiple receive
antennas", and "inherent diversity over a static fading channel". MBM is
particularly suitable for transmitting high data rates using a single transmit
and multiple receive antennas (Single Input-Multiple Output Media-Based
Modulation, or SIMO-MBM). However, complexity issues limit the amount of data
that can be embedded in the channel state using a single transmit unit. To
address this shortcoming, the current article introduces the idea of Layered
Multiple Input-Multiple Output Media-Based Modulation (LMIMO-MBM). Relying on a
layered structure, LMIMO-MBM can significantly reduce both hardware and
algorithmic complexities, as well as the training overhead, vs. SIMO-MBM.
Simulation results show excellent performance in terms of Symbol Error Rate
(SER) vs. Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). For example, a LMIMO-MBM is
capable of transmitting bits of information per (complex) channel-use,
with SER at dB (or SER
at dB). This performance is achieved using a single transmission
and without adding any redundancy for Forward-Error-Correction (FEC). This
means, in addition to its excellent SER vs. energy/rate performance, MBM
relaxes the need for complex FEC structures, and thereby minimizes the
transmission delay. Overall, LMIMO-MBM provides a promising alternative to MIMO
and Massive MIMO for the realization of 5G wireless networks.Comment: 26 pages, 11 figures, additional examples are given to further

ATDRSS 300 MB/S modem program
The 300 Mbps modem was developed for direct application to the next generation high data rate Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) communication system. This modem utilizes continuous phase modulation combined with a restricted range Reed-Solomon Codec to achieve a bandwidth efficiency of 3 bits/sec/hz. The constant envelope amplitude signal allows one to operate the power amplifier in its saturation mode without significant spectral regrowth or bit error rate degradation
Four-dimensional modulation and coding: An alternate to frequency-reuse
Four dimensional modulation as a means of improving communication efficiency on the band-limited Gaussian channel, with the four dimensions of signal space constituted by phase orthogonal carriers (cos omega sub c t and sin omega sub c t) simultaneously on space orthogonal electromagnetic waves are discussed. "Frequency reuse' techniques use such polarization orthogonality to reuse the same frequency slot, but the modulation is not treated as four dimensional, rather a product of two-d modulations, e.g., QPSK. It is well known that, higher dimensionality signalling affords possible improvements in the power bandwidth sense. Four-D modulations based upon subsets of lattice-packings in four-D, which afford simplification of encoding and decoding are described. Sets of up to 1024 signals are constructed in four-D, providing a (Nyquist) spectral efficiency of up to 10 bps/Hz. Energy gains over the reuse technique are in the one to three dB range t equal bandwidth
Spread spectrum techniques for indoor wireless IR communications
Multipath dispersion and fluorescent light
interference are two major problems in indoor
wireless infrared communications systems. Multipath
dispersion introduces intersymhol interference
at data rates above 10 Mb/s, while
fluorescent light induces severe narrowband
interference to baseband modulation schemes
commonly used such as OOK and PPM. This
article reviews the research into the application
of direct sequence spread spectrum techniques
to ameliorate these key channel impairments
without having to resort to complex signal processing
techniques. The inherent properties of a
spreading sequence are exploited in order to
combat the ISI and narrowband interference. In
addition, to reduce the impact of these impairments,
the DSSS modulation schemes have
strived to be bandwidth-efficient and simple to
implement. Three main DSSS waveform techniques
have been developed and investigated.
These are sequence inverse keying, complementary
sequence inverse keying, and M-ary biorthogonal
keying (MBOK). The operations of
the three systems are explained; their performances
were evaluated through simulations and
experiments for a number of system parameters,
including spreading sequence type and length.
By comparison with OOK, our results show that
SIK, CSIK, and MBOK are effective against
multipath dispersion and fluorescent light interference
becausc the penalties incurred on the
DSSS schemes are between 0-7 dB, while the
penalty on OOK in the same environment is
more than 17 dB. The DSSS solution for IR
wireless transmission demonstrates that a transmission
waveform can he designed to remove
the key channel impairments in a wireless IR
system
