Performance analysis of non-linear generalised pre-coding aided spatial modulation

Developed from the recently emerged generalized pre-coding aided spatial modulation (GPSM) concept, a novel non-linear GPSM scheme based on the powerful vector perturbation philosophy is proposed, where a particular subset of receive antennas is activated and the specific activation pattern itself conveys useful implicit information in addition to the conventional modulated and perturbed symbols. Explicitly, both the infinite and finite alphabet capacities are derived for the proposed non-linear GPSM scheme. The associated complexity, energy efficiency, and error probability are also investigated. Our numerical results show that, as the only known non-linear realization within the spatial modulation family, the proposed scheme constitutes an attractive solution to the flexible design of green transceivers, since it is capable of striking a compelling compromise amongst the key performance indicators of throughput, energy consumption, complexity, and performance. In particular, in the challenging full-rank scenario, conveying information through receive antenna indices exhibits a lower complexity, a higher energy efficiency, and a better error resilience than that of the conventional arrangement

A generalized space-frequency index modulation scheme for downlink MIMO transmissions with improved diversity

Multidimensional Index Modulations (IM) are a novel alternative to conventional modulations which can bring considerable benefits for future wireless networks. Within this scope, in this paper we present a new scheme, named as Precoding-aided Transmitter side Generalized Space-Frequency Index Modulation (PT-GSFIM), where part of the information bits select the active antennas and subcarriers which then carry amplitude and phase modulated symbols. The proposed scheme is designed for multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) scenarios and incorporates a precoder which removes multiuser interference (MUI) at the receivers. Furthermore, the proposed PT-GSFIM also integrates signal space diversity (SSD) techniques for tackling the typical poor performance of uncoded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based schemes. By combining complex rotation matrices (CRM) and subcarrier-level interleaving, PT-GSFIM can exploit the inherent diversity in frequency selective channels and improve the performance without additional power or bandwidth. To support reliable detection of the multidimensional PT-GSFIM we also propose three different detection algorithms which can provide different tradeoffs between performance and complexity. Simulation results shows that proposed PT-GSFIM scheme, can provide significant gains over conventional MU-MIMO and GSM schemes.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

A Precoding Aided Space Domain Index Modulation Scheme for Downlink Multiuser MIMO Systems

In this correspondence, we propose a space domain index modulation (IM) scheme for the downlink of multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) systems. Instead of the most common approach where spatial bits select active receiver antennas, in the presented scheme the spatial information is mapped onto the transmitter side. This allows IM to better exploit large dimensional antenna settings which are typically easier to deploy at the base station. In order to mitigate inter-user interference and allow single user detection, a precoder is adopted at the BS. Furthermore two alternative enhanced signal construction methods are proposed for minimizing the transmitted power or enable an implementation with a reduced number of RF chains. Simulation results for different scenarios show that the proposed approach can be an attractive alternative to conventional precoded MU-MIMO.Comment: submitted to IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technolog
