    Spatially Modulated Non Orthogonal Space Time Block Code: Construction and design from cyclic codes over Galois Field
    (Elsevier B.V., 2019) Godkhindi Shrutkirthi, G.S.; G.D., G.S.; Shripathi Acharya, U.S.
    A new class of non-binary Spatially Modulated Non-orthogonal Space Time Block Code designs (SM-NSTBC) has been proposed. These designs employ full rank, length n,(n|qm?1,m?n) cyclic codes defined over GF(qm). The underlying cyclic code constructions have the property that the codewords when viewed as m×n matrices over GF(q) have rank equal to m (Full rank). These codes are punctured to yield m×m full rank matrices over GF(q). Rank preserving transformations are used to map the codewords of full rank codes over a finite field to full rank Space Time Block Codes. The proposed scheme can be generalized to handle any number of transmit antenna greater than two. Due to the characteristics of Full rank cyclic codes employed, a coding gain of approximately 1.5 dB to 5 dB is obtained over conventional STBC-SM and SM-OSTBC schemes. This is demonstrated for spectral efficiencies of 4, 5, 7 and 8 bpcu. Analytical as well as Monte-Carlo simulations show that proposed SM-NSTBC outperforms STBC-SM and its variants. The upper bound on average bit error rate has been derived and the computation complexity for ML detection has been estimated. © 2019

    Performance analysis of underwater vertical wireless optical communication system in the presence of weak turbulence, pointing errors and attenuation losses
    (Springer, 2023) Savidhan Shetty, S.C.S.; Naik, R.P.; Shripathi Acharya, U.S.; Chung, W.-Y.
    In this paper, we have investigated the performance of underwater vertical wireless optical communication (UVWOC) link employing on–off key modulation in the presence of underwater turbulence, pointing errors and attenuation losses. The turbulence of the medium (assumed to be weak turbulence) has been modeled by employing the hyperbolic tangent log normal (HTLN) distribution. Temperature, pressure and salinity are parameters which can bring about variation of optical transmission characteristics with respect to depth of the ocean/sea. An in-depth study of optical transmission through vertical oceanic links requires the the underwater medium to be modeled as comprising of non-identical turbulent layers. Each of these independent and non-identical turbulence layers are modeled using the HTLN distribution function. The pointing error due to misalignment between source and detector is modeled using Rayleigh displacement pointing error. A novel closed-form expression to quantify the average bit error rate (BER) has been derived for single input single output (SISO) communication link. This expression has then been further generalized to make it applicable to the case of receive diversity schemes such as selection combining, majority logic combining and maximum ratio combining. The expression for the average BER associated with the UVWOC link for different pointing errors, different data rates and different types of ocean water has been determined. Novel closed-form expressions quantifying the outage probability and ergodic channel capacity have been derived for SISO and SC receive diversity schemes. The accuracy of all of the closed-form expressions derived in this paper have been validated using Monte-Carlo simulations. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    Performance Analysis of MIMO-EGC System for the Underwater Vertical Wireless Optical Communication Link
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Savidhan Shetty, S.C.S.; Naik, R.P.; Shripathi Acharya, U.S.; Chung, W.-Y.
    In this paper, we have investigated the performance of an underwater vertical wireless optical communication (UVWOC) link employing multiple input-multiple output (MIMO) operating in conjunction with equal gain combing (EGC) techniques perturbed by weak and strong turbulence in the presence of pointing errors and attenuation losses. Vertical underwater turbulence, which varies from layer to layer due to temperature and salinity variation connected to depth, is modeled using hyperbolic tangent log-normal (HTLN) distribution in the case of weak underwater turbulence and gamma-gamma (GG) distribution in the case of strong underwater turbulence. Novel closed-form expressions quantifying the average bit error rate (BER) have been derived for the UVWOC MIMO EGC system for weak and strong turbulence regimes. The expression for the average BER associated with the UVWOC link for different values of pointing error, differing vertical layer depth, modulation types, and differing numbers of sources and detectors have been determined. In addition, closed-form expressions for the outage probability (OP) and ergodic channel capacity (ECC) have been derived for the UVWOC MIMO EGC system. The accuracy of all closed-form expressions derived in the paper has been verified using Monte Carlo simulations. © 2013 IEEE.
