Abstract

This paper presents a pre-coding scheme for recently proposed differential spatial modulation (DSM) systems. It employs a lattice reduction (LR) aided pre-coding approach. An approximated upper bound on average bit error rate (BER) is semi-analytically derived. It is analytically shown that it can achieve a full diversity gain. That is, the performance analysis demonstrates that the LR-aided pre-coding DSM (LR-PDSM) systems with transmit antennas and receive antennas can achieve the maximum transmit diversity order of . Meanwhile, it is well-known that the diversity order attained by the conventional zero-forcing (ZF) pre-coding is given as . Simulation results verify the approximated theoretical analysis and show that LR-aided ZF pre-coding is capable of improving the BER performance of the conventional ZF pre-coding based DSM systems under the same spectral efficiency.
