Abstract
The authors present a maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE) receiver structure for both linear and hard-limited 16-quadrature pulse overlapping modulation (QPOM) schemes. Using this structure, the performance of these schemes over shadowed Rician fading channels is studied. The structure of linear 16-QPOM schemes allowed the use of independent decoding for in-phase and quadrature components of the transmitted signal, thus reducing considerably the complexity of the MLSE receiver. The hard-limited 16-QPOM scheme used two hard-limited QPOM schemes in parallel. It is shown that an optimum MLSE receiver for this type of signal needs to consider both in-phase and quadrature components at the same time. Using the MLSE receiver, both schemes outperform conventional coherent 16-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM). >
