Abstract:

The modulation diversity scheme of bit-interleaved space-time coded modulation was proposed. The method to achieve modulation diversity and the optimal rotated angle of the constellation to reach the maximum diversity gain were analyzed. The impact on the system of bit-interleaved space-time coded modulation with iterative decoding (BI-STCM-ID) was studied. The expression of pairwise error possibility (PEP) and bit metric for decoding were presented. Analysis and simulation results show that modulation diversity can greatly improve the performance of BI-STCM-ID under Rayleigh fading channels. Furthermore, modulation diversity combined with space-time diversity has the complementary effects on improving the performance of both fast and slow fading channels.

Key words: bit interleaved coded modulation, modulation diversity, rotated constellation
