Abstract
Integrating adaptive modulation and coding techniques into time-varying meteor burst channels with joint data detection and channel estimation at the receiver can greatly increase the average throughput of a meteor burst communication system (MBCS). Although the per-survivor processing algorithm (PSPA) based on joint data and channel estimation provides superior performance and robustness for MBCS, it is very difficult to implement it into practice due to the extremely high computational complexity. An adaptive state reduction scheme using a dimension-down PSPA (ADPSP) with few states in the trellis diagram is proposed based on the slow-fading characteristic of the meteor burst channel. It has the advantages of the dimension-down PSPA (D-PSPA) and the adaptive state reduction scheme based on PSPA proposed in our previous work. The scheme is proposed to reduce the computation complexity and memory size for exponentially decaying meteor burst channels and make the maximum likelihood sequence detection available for adaptive data transmission. Based on the estimation of parameters of the meteor burst channel, the adaptive threshold is obtained in order to decrease the computation compleixty of PSPA, where the states close to the correct one in the trellis is selected. Simulation results are presented to validate the theoretical analysis. It is shown that the proposed adaptive state reduction scheme using a D-PSPA can obtain a good tradeoff between the achievable performance and its dynamically computation complexity, as well as provide reliable data transmission for MBCS using adaptive coding and modulation.
