Superposition Coded Modulation Based Faster-Than-Nyquist Signaling

الملخص EN

A structure of faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signaling combined with superposition coded modulation (SCM) is considered.

The so-called FTN-SCM structure is able to achieve the constrained capacity of FTN signaling and only requires a low detection complexity.

By deriving a new observation model suitable for FTN-SCM, we offer the power allocation based on a proper detection method.

Simulation results show that, at any given spectral efficiency, the bit error rate (BER) curve of FTN-SCM lies clearly outside the minimum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) boundary of orthogonal signaling with a larger alphabet.

The achieved data rates are also close to the maximum data rates of the certain shaping pulse.
