Abstract
This paper proposes a developed index modulated spread spectrum orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) that is based on X-transform (IM-XOFDM-SS). The presented OFDM sends information not only by M-ary data symbols but also by indexes bits that used to select the spreading code from a known set, and applies the X-transform for baseband processing. A theoretical analysis for upper bound bit-error rate (BER) over Rayleigh fading channels is derived for the proposed scheme. Simulations results show that our proposed scheme outperforms the competitive benchmark systems in terms of BER, peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and computational complexity. It achieves, at 10−4 BER, about 22 dB and 21 dB SNR gain when spectral efficiency is SE=1 bps/Hz. Additionally, it gains about 5.5 dB PAPR reduction in comparison to IM-OFDM-SS scheme that is based on FFT for baseband processing.
