Adaptive Modulation and Coding Based on Fuzzy Logic Cognitive Engine

Adaptive modulation and coding( AMC) which depends on channel state information( CSI) can make the modulation and coding scheme( MCS) for the sender changed, and make the spectrum efficiency enhanced. The traditional method of AMC establishes a lookup table of MCSs at first,and then the sender chooses the proper MCS according to the CSI from feedback channel. However,this method is not suitable for frequency selective and fast fading channel. Thus, a method based on fuzzy logic cognitive engine is proposed in this paper. The type of channel is recognized by the fuzzy logic cognitive engine,then the MCSs are modified to suit for the channel type. The simulation results show that the proposed method is more suitable for frequency selective and fast fading channel. And it is more reliability under the condition of meeting the bit error rate( BER).

A Joint Rate Control and AMC Algorithm for Adaptive Transmission Systems

The traditional communication system is effectively designed for the worst-case channel state and it can not use the spectral efficiently over the time-varying multipath channel. In order to improve the spectral efficiency and ensure robust and spectrally-efficient transmission over the time-varying multipath channel,a joint rate control and adaptive modulation and coding ( AMC) algorithm for adaptive transmission systems is proposed in this paper. Firstly,the proposed algorithm can formulate a modulation and coding scheme ( MCS) switching table according to the offline simulation results and the target bit error rate ( BER) . Then,the optimal MCS is selected in MCS switching table according to the channel state information ( CSI) and then passes to the transmitter and receiver to implement. So the adaptive system which always uses the optimal MCS to transmit signals uses the spectral efficiently. The simulation results validate the proposed algorithm and show that under the premise of meeting the target BER,the adaptive system performing the proposed algorithm has a higher average spectral efficiency ( ASE) than that of the non-adaptive system.

Performance and Improvement of MCS Selection with Channel Quality Estimation Errors for HSDPA

The throughput performance of modulation and coding schemes （MCS） selection with channel quality estimation errors （CQEE） is analyzed for high-speed downlink packet access （HSDPA）. To reduce the loss of throughput caused by CQEE, the robust MCS selection method and adaptive MCS switching scheme are proposed. In addition, automatic repeat request （ARQ） scheme is used to improve the block error rate （BLER） performance. Simulation results show that the proposed methods decrease the throughput loss resulted from CQEE efficiently and BLER performance gets better with ARQ scheme.

MCS Selection Criteria Based on Performance Simulation for HSDPA

An adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) scheme integrated with multi-code transmission for high speed downlink packet access is presented and some modulation and coding scheme (MCS) selection criteria are proposed to maximize single user data rates. Based on link-level performance analysis, the MCS selection criteria are proposed with the constraints of QoS requirement, modulation level, channel coding rate and the number of available channelization codes. By allowing multiple transmission parameters changing, these criteria make the scheme more flexible to time-varying mobile channel with comparatively low complexity through a look-up table method. The AMC scheme is sensitive to the changes of channel condition and can save the channelization codes in an applicable way by applying these criteria.
