    Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing With Index Modulation in the Presence of High Mobility
    (Ieee, 2013) Basar, Ertugrul; Panayırcı, Erdal; Aygolu, Umit; Panayirci, Erdal; Electrical-Electronics Engineering
    In this paper, a novel orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme, which is called OFDM with index modulation (OFDM-IM), is proposed for frequency-selective fading channels in the presence of high mobility. In this scheme, inspiring from the recently introduced spatial modulation concept for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels, the information is conveyed not only by M-ary signal constellations as in classical OFDM, but also by the indices of the subcarriers, which are activated according to the incoming bit stream. Different low complexity transceiver structures based on maximum likelihood (ML) detection or log-likelihood ratio (LLR) calculation are proposed. It is shown via computer simulations that the proposed scheme achieves significantly better error performance than classical OFDM.

    Trellis Code Design for Spatial Modulation
    (Ieee, 2011) Basar, Ertugrul; Panayırcı, Erdal; Aygolu, Umit; Panayirci, Erdal; Electrical-Electronics Engineering
    In this paper, we propose a novel multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission scheme, called trellis coded spatial modulation (TC-SM) in which a trellis (convolutional) encoder and a spatial modulation (SM) mapper are jointly designed similar to the conventional trellis coded modulation (TCM). A soft decision Viterbi decoder, which is fed with the soft information supplied by the optimal SM decoder, is used at the receiver. The pairwise error probability (PEP) upper bound is derived for the TC-SM scheme in uncorrelated quasi-static Rayleigh fading channels. From the PEP upper bound, code design criteria are given and then used to obtain new 4-, 8- and 16-state TC-SM schemes using QPSK (quadrature phase-shift keying) and 8-PSK modulations for 2 and 3 bits/s/Hz spectral efficiencies. It is shown via computer simulations that the proposed TC-SM schemes achieve significantly better error performance than their counterparts at the same spectral efficiency, yet with reduced decoding complexity.
