Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) scheme based on Spatial Modulation (SM) and termed as Pre-coding aided Differential Spatial Modulation (PDSM). By mapping information to the receiver side space-time transmit blocks and conducting differential modulation, the PDSM scheme achieves further reduced receiver side complexity in comparison with Pre-coding aided Spatial Modulation (PSM). A general upper bound on the Average Bit Error Probability (ABEP) achieved by the PDSM architecture with an arbitrary number of transmit antennas and two receive antennas is derived, and an exact closed-form ABEP expression is provided for BPSK signaling in Rayleigh fading environment. The PSM architecture with the same system configuration is chosen as a benchmark for performance comparisons. Simulation results validate the analysis and reveal a less-than-3dB Signalto- Noise power Ratio (SNR) penalty of the considered system in comparison with the benchmark.
