A 3-D Polarization Quadrature Amplitude Modulation Method and Constellation Mapping

As a new three-dimensional(3-D)modulation,Polarization Quadrature Amplitude Modulation(PQAM) can be regarded as the combination of Pulse amplitude modulation(PAM) and Quadrature Amplitude Modulation(QAM) Modulation.It can better improve the digital communication efficiency and reduce the Symbol error rate(SER) of the system than one-dimensional or two-dimensional modulation scheme.How to design a feasible constellation is the most concerned problem of PQAM currently.This paper first studies the relationship between the SER theoretical value of PQAM and the distribution of M and N,proposes a new M,N allocation scheme.Secondly,a new and straightforward design method of constructing higher-level 3-D signal constellations,which can be matched with the PQAM,and the constellation can divided into three different structures according to the ary for PQAM.Finally,the simulation results show that:in PQAM system,the modulation scheme and the constellation mapping scheme are proposed in this paper which can effectively reduce the system SER and improve the anti-noise performance of the system.

Opportunistic Vector Perturbation with Superposition Signalling

In this letter,we first put forward a new basic problem to the famous vector perturbation(VP) precoding that whether the extended constellation of VP could transmit more information bits.Then,we propose an opportunistic vector perturbation(OVP) precoding with superposition signalling scheme,which is aimed at getting the performance of VP closer to capacity limit.The main idea is using subsequent recoverable data symbol vector to perturb currently transmitting data symbol vector opportunistically.Analysis and simulation results show that the proposed OVP can transmit more valid information bits than conventional VP at the same transmit power,modulation order and number of antennas.
