Power Allocation for Adaptive OFDM Index Modulation in Cooperative Networks

In this paper, we propose a power allocation strategy for the adaptive orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) index modulation (IM) in cooperative networks. The allocation strategy is based on the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions, and aims at maximizing the average network capacity according to the instantaneous channel state information (CSI). As the transmit power at source and relay is constrained separately, we can thus formulate an optimization problem by allocating power to active subcarriers. Compared to the conventional uniform power allocation strategy, the proposed dynamic strategy can lead to a higher average network capacity, especially in the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region. The analysis is also verified by numerical results produced by Monte Carlo simulations. By applying the proposed power allocation strategy, the efficiency of adaptive OFDM IM can be enhanced in practice, which paves the way for its implementation in the future, especially for cell-edge communications

Modulation Signal Chain for a 5G PDSCH Reciever

LTE (Long Term Evolution), marketed as 5G LTE, is a standard for wireless communication of high-speed data for mobile phones and data terminals. It increases the system capacity and speed. The standard is developed by the 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project). The scrambling and modulation was implemented using hardware and software methods. The using of scrambling and modulation mapping with help of constellation method is used. Constellation method is easily differentiating the real and imaginary terms of the modulation mapping. Depending on the hardware structure, particular scrambling and modulation mapping was designed using Verilog RTL coding. Simulation and synthesis was carried out using Xilinx Vivado 2015.4.2 design and implemented on Artix-7 FPGA board. Clock cycle delay is reduced to two clock cycle

On the classification of binary space shift keying modulation

Blind and non-cooperative classification of the modulation employed in signals originating from unknown or partly known sources has widespread applications in civilian and military contexts. One of the most recent and interesting approaches to digital modulation which has been enabled by multiantenna transceivers is the spatial modulation, where the indices of the transmit antennas activated in a given symbol period are utilized to transmit information bits. Clearly, existing modulation classification methods, designed for the identification of conventional modulation types, are not capable of classifying the family of spatially modulated signals that make use of the space dimension. In this work, for the first time in the literature, a modulation classification method is proposed for a modulation type belonging to the family of Spatial Modulations: the Binary Space Shift Keying modulation (BSSK
