Abstract:
Spatial Modulation(SM) and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM) Multi-Mode Index Modulation (MM-OFDM-IM) techniques have significant advantages in Energy Efficiency(EE) and Spectral Efficiency(SE), respectively. The combination of multi-dimensional index modulation technology can apply multiple physical resources to meet the high demand for data transmission and system capacity in wireless communication systems. Therefore, SM and MM-OFDM-IM systems can be flexibly combined to construct an OFDM Multiple Mode Space Frequency Composite Index Modulation (MM-OFDM-SFCIM) based on space frequency combination. This system can retain the silent subcarriers in traditional subcarrier index modulation technique, expanding new composite coefficient dimensions and improving its SE and EE. Aiming at the complex characteristics of this system, this paper proposes a joint detection algorithm EL-REML (REML based on symbolic Energy and LLR, EL-REML) based on symbolic energy and log-likelihood. The simulation results show that the MM-OFDM-SFCIM system achieves about 30% improvement in SE compared to traditional space-frequency combination systems, and the EL-REML algorithm proposed in this system achieves a 3—4 dB improvement in bit error rate compared to the LLR algorithm. Compared with traditional ML algorithm, it has lower computational complexity.
