Description
Summary:In this paper, a new short reference differential chaos shift keying (SR-DCSK) cooperative communication system based on modified code index modulation, referred to as the MCIM-SR-DCSK-CC system, is proposed. In the proposed MCIM-SR-DCSK-CC system, the information bits are transmitted to both the relay and the destination in the first time slot. On the other hand, in the second time slot, the relay not only forwards the information bits but also sends new information bits to the destination. Specifically, the relay adopts the modified code index modulation to transmit more information bits to the destination. The theoretical bit error rate (BER) expressions of the proposed MCIM-SR-DCSK-CC system are obtained over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and the multipath Rayleigh fading channels. It is demonstrated that the simulation results of BER performance match the theoretical results. The energy efficiency (EE), the data rate, and transmission throughput are carefully analyzed. The performance of the proposed system is better than its competitors’.
