SPATIAL-MODULATION BASED COMMUNICATION SYSTEM PERFORMANCE INVESTIGATION AND SIMULATION Mohammad AlFlahat Khaled Aboor Ramzi AlSuss Dr Yazid Khattabi MOTIVATION • System Y has: – Much better BER performance – Same bandwidth as X – 5x The bit rate of X – 80% Less transmitted energy – No ICI CONVENTIONAL MIMO SYSTEMS A. Spatial Multiplexing B. Space Time Coding (STC) ADVANTAGES OF SPATIAL MODULATION One active transmitter antenna at a time (one RF chain) yields: 1. No inter channel interference 2. Higher spectral efficiency than STC and SISO systems 3. Energy efficient 4. Less complex than other MIMO systems HOW SM WORKS? At the Transmitter Example: 2x1 QPSK SM system HOW SM WORKS? From the Transmitter to the Receiver Example: 2x1 QPSK SM system HOW SM WORKS? At the Receiver Example: 2x1 QPSK SM system DRAWBACKS OF SPATIAL MODULATION 1. Depends thoroughly on the surrounding transmission environment 2. High switching speed among transmitter antennas 3. Lower bit rate than Spatial Multiplexing systems PERFORMANCE INVESTIGATION AND SIMULATION METHODOLOGY SIMULATION OVERVIEW • Message: random sequence of 0’s and 1’s • Rayleigh fading coefficients: β = 1 π 2 • Noise Spectral Power Density: π0 = • Noise values: π = π0 π 2 0,1 + π 0,1 + π 1 π 2 πΈπ 100.1×πππ ππ΅ π0 π 2 0,1 • Received symbols: π (π) = π(π) × β(π) + π(π) 0,1 NEW CODE VS OLD CODE New code: Old codes: • Any number of Tx & Rx antennas • Any modulation order M • Specific to a certain system and modulation order • Significantly faster • Slower • Can simulate SISO and SM-MIMO systems SM-MIMO Systems Simulation vs Theory SM-MIMO Systems Simulation vs Theory SM-MIMO Systems Simulation vs Theory Effect of Adding More Rx Antennas OPENING EXAMPLE The 16x4 BPSK SM-MIMO system has: –Much better BER performance –Same bandwidth as BPSK SISO –5x The bit rate of SISO –80% Less transmitted energy –No ICI HARDWARE DEMONSTRATION Implementation of VLC In This Demo (Free Space Optical Communication) Hardware Components EXAMPLE ON OPERATION THANK YOU Students: Advisor: Mohammad AlFlahat Dr.Yazid Khattabi Ramzi AlSuss Khaled Aboor
