    BER performance enhancement for secure wireless communication systems based on DCSK-MIMO techniques under Rayleigh fading channel
    (2013) Abdulameer, L.F.; Jokhakar, J.D.; Sripati, U.; Kulkarni, M.
    There has been a growing interest in the use of chaotic techniques for enabling secure communication in recent years. This need has been motivated by the emergence of a number of wireless services which require the channel to provide very low bit error rates (BER) along with information security. As more and more information is transacted over wireless media, there has been increasing criminal activity directed against such systems. This paper investigates the feasibility of using chaotic communications over Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) channels. We have studied the performance of differential chaos shift keying (DCSK) with 2×2 Alamouti scheme and 2×1 Alamouti scheme for different chaotic maps over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and channels disturbed by Rayleigh fading. Both the inherently wideband DCSK modulation and the space-time block code (STBC) are techniques that can mitigate the effect of multipath fading. The use of these schemes allows us to enhance security without degrading the BER performance for Rayleigh fading channels. We have employed an exact method to analyze the performances of DCSK communication system over fading channel. Our simulations indicate that the combination of the STC and tent map provides the best BER performance in addition to security when compared to the choice of other maps. Hence, this study shows that the use of these schemes can allow the user to enhance security without degrading the BER performance while communicating over these channels. © 2013 Allerton Press, Inc.

    Redesigned Spatial Modulation for Spatially Correlated Fading Channels
    (Springer New York LLC barbara.b.bertram@gsk.com, 2017) G.D., G.S.; Koila, K.; Neha, N.; Raghavendra, R.; Sripati, U.
    In this paper, a new variant of Spatial Modulation (SM) Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) transmission technique, designated as Redesigned Spatial Modulation (ReSM) has been proposed. In ReSM scheme, a dynamic mapping for antenna selection is adopted. This scheme employs both single antenna as well as double antenna combinations depending upon channel conditions to combat the effect of spatial correlation. When evaluated over spatially correlated channel conditions, for a fixed spectral efficiency and number of transmit antennas, ReSM exhibits performance improvement of at least 3 dB over all the conventional SM schemes including Trellis Coded Spatial Modulation (TCSM) scheme. Furthermore, a closed form expression for the upper bound on Pairwise Error Probability (PEP) for ReSM has been derived. This has been used to calculate the upper bound for the Average Bit Error Probability (ABEP) for spatially correlated channels. The results of Monte Carlo simulations are in good agreement with the predictions made by analytical results. The relative gains of all the comparison plots in the paper are specified at an ABER of 10?4. © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.

    A comprehensive framework for Double Spatial Modulation under imperfect channel state information
    (Elsevier B.V., 2017) G.D., G.S.; Koila, K.; Raghavendra, R.; Shripathi Acharya, U.
    The essential requirement for a 5G wireless communication system is the realization of energy efficient as well as spectrally efficient modulation schemes. Double Spatial Modulation (DSM) is a recently proposed high rate Index Modulation (IM) scheme, designed for use in Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless systems. The aim of this scheme is to increase the spectral efficiency of conventional Spatial Modulation (SM) systems while keeping the energy efficiency intact. In this paper, the impact of imperfect channel knowledge on the performance of DSM system under Rayleigh, Rician and Nakagami-m fading channels has been quantified. Later, a modified low complexity decoder for the DSM scheme has been designed using ordered block minimum mean square error (OB-MMSE) criterion. Its performance under varied fading environments have been quantified via Monte Carlo simulations. Finally, a closed form expression for the pairwise error probability (PEP) for a DSM scheme under conditions of perfect and imperfect channel state information has been derived. This is employed to calculate the upper bound on the average bit error probability (ABEP) over aforementioned fading channels. It is observed that, under perfect and imperfect channel conditions DSM outperforms all the other variants of SM by at least 2dB at an average bit error ratio (ABER) of 10?5. Tightness of the derived upper bound is illustrated by Monte Carlo simulation results. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.

    Performance Analysis of Hybrid RF/FSO System Using BPSK-SIM and DPSK-SIM Over Gamma-Gamma Turbulence Channel With Pointing Errors for Smart City Applications
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Krishnan, P.
    The flourishing technology in wireless communication-free space optics (FSO) offers lots of merits over radio frequency (RF) links due to its license free bandwidth, ease of installation, high security features, and viable cost for short distance communication. It's high speed data rate and immunity against electromagnetic interference makes FSO the emerging technology of today. But, FSO is not always reliable especially during atmospheric conditions, such as fog, rain, mist, and snow. Hence, in account a new technique of hybrid FSO/RF, this includes advantages of both FSO and RF technologies. Through this paper intend to perform an extensive analysis of the error and misalignment effects encountered in line of sight communication. Pointing error and turbulence effects are the main drawback parameters for our analysis. For this purpose I have taken into consideration different modulation techniques-binary phase shift keying-subcarrier intensity modulation, differential phase shift keying-subcarrier intensity modulation communication system with reference to on-off keying (OOK) modulation. The novel expressions for outage probability and BER for both FSO and RF system are derived which uses Rician channel and 16QAM modulation scheme alongside hybrid FSO/RF system for weak, moderate, and strong turbulence regimes using Meijer-G function. © 2013 IEEE.

    Robust transmission using channel encoding towards 5G New Radio: A telemetry approach
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2021) Sharma, V.; Arya, R.K.; Kumar, S.
    This paper presents a robust channel encoding scheme under adaptive modulation and coding for a massive machine type communication device in 5G new radio. For the very first time, mode-selection and distance statistics algorithms have been simultaneously evaluated, in which together it provides the closest approximation of efficient adaptive modulation and coding with robust transmission. The prediction of optimum adaptive modulation and coding is based on the analysis of uplink packet using distance statistics, and downlink packet using mode-selection mechanism. The performance of 5G new radio by incorporating OFDM subcarrier has been evaluated using analytical as well as simulation approach. Mode-selection algorithm has been considered to predict the environmental condition under a fading channel while the distance statistics provide feedback of the previously transmitted channel condition. The result of both the approaches provide a better bit error rate for adaptive modulation & coding profile under 1/4, 1/18, 1/16 and 1/32 cyclic prefix. © 2021

    RIS Assisted Triple-Hop RF-FSO Convergent With UWOC System
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Bhargava Kumar, L.B.; Naik, R.P.; Krishnan, P.; Raj, A.A.B.; Majumdar, A.K.; Chung, W.-Y.
    The convergence of wireless optical communication (WOC) and radio-frequency (RF) systems is a promising technology that overcomes the shortcomings of standalone communication systems. By incorporating reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) on top of these WOC and RF communication systems, it is possible to circumvent the connection challenges associated with standard line of sight (LOS) communication links. Wireless communication systems with RIS assistance are a promising and evolving technology that enables more efficient and reliable link performance over long distances. The performance of the triple-hop RIS-assisted RF-FSO convergent with the underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) system is investigated in this article. We considered the fading channel Nakagami-m over the RIS-RF connection and the fading channel Gamma-Gamma (GG) over the RIS-FSO and UWOC links. Then, the average bit error rate (ABER) and outage probability are determined using closed-form expressions. The ABER and outage probability performances of the triple-hop communication system is analysed by varying parameters such as turbulence, misalignment fading, and the number of RIS elements. The obtained results demonstrate an improvement in performance for low turbulence, low pointing error, and an increasing number of RIS elements. Additionally, the data demonstrate the accuracy of the analytical results. © 2013 IEEE.

    Generalized designs for precoded receive spatial modulation derived from non-orthogonal space time block codes
    (Springer, 2022) Shashikant, S.G.; G.D., G.D.G.; Shripathi Acharya, U.S.
    In this paper, a new MIMO scheme termed as precoded Spatially Modulated Non-orthogonal Space Time Block Code (precoded SM-NSTBC) is proposed. The primary concept of precoded SM-NSTBC is to activate a subset of receive antennas in a pre-defined manner and choose specific activated patterns to represent information symbols. We have synthesized schemes derived from full rank Cyclic codes defined over Galois field Rank preserving transformations are used to map the full rank codewords over a finite field to full rank Space Time Block Codes. Due to the characteristics of full rank Cyclic codes employed, a performance improvement of approximately 2 dB to 7 dB is observed. This advantage is realized when the performance of these schemes is compared with precoded SM-OSTBC and precoded STBC-SM. The improvement due to the coding gain is observed in both uncorrelated as well as correlated Rayleigh fading environments. An upper bound on the average bit error rate (ABER) is derived. Close correspondence between Monte-Carlo simulations and analytic values are observed. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    Performance investigation of underwater wireless optical system for image transmission through the oceanic turbulent optical medium
    (Springer, 2022) Naik, R.P.; Shripathi Acharya, U.S.; Lal, S.; Krishnan, P.
    The importance of resources contained in the sea and on the sea floor is increasing with each passing day. Hence, exploration of the sea and sea floor has become a very important requirement. Underwater imaging is a science that has gained importance over the past two decades. Underwater images indicate the state of sea floor and transmitting such images through the harsh and turbulent oceanic medium can cause deterioration of the information contained in the image due to diminished color reproduction, low contrast and blur. In this paper, we have performed the simulation studies to understand perturbations induced during the transmission of sea floor images using high-speed optical signaling through the underwater channels. The transmitted irradiance often suffers from underwater turbulence and beam attenuation. The bit error rate (BER) of the system proposed to transmit information through channels has been determined through analytic means and validated through Monte-Carlo simulation. Comparison between the transmitted and received images in the presence of turbulence and attenuation have been presented. The BER performance of the proposed system is evaluated in the presence of beam attenuation and underwater turbulence. The turbulence induced errors are minimized using the transmit/receive diversity and multiple input multiple output (MIMO) techniques. In addition to the diversity techniques, median and adaptive median filters used to minimize the distortion in the received image. The BER results show that the 4 × 5 MIMO system gains 19.50 dB of transmit power at BER of 10 - 5, when compared with the single input single output system. Similarly, an improvement of at-least 18 dB peak signal to noise ratio obtain using the adaptive median filter based system over the un-filter based system. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    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.

    A robust transmission with enhancement of 5G PHY using FBMC and AMC for machine-to-machine communication node
    (KeAi Communications Co., 2023) Sharma, V.; Arya, R.K.; Kumar, S.
    Advancement of 5G new radios has enabled more robust communication for the Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication node, using filter bank multicarrier (FBMC). This paper focuses on robust transmission over random fluctuations of the channel and also enhances the battery life for the massive machine type communication (mMTC) node. Filter bank multicarrier and Adaptive Modulation Coding (AMC) have been utilized together to enhance the performance of the 5G (NR) PHY layer. A frame-to-frame implementation is used to diminish the impact of fading using AMC, while efficient utilization of spectrum is achieved using FBMC. The selection of the AMC profile is obtained through the analysis of uplink packets using the Distance Statistics (DS). The FBMC is incorporated with 5G PHY in place of OFDM to achieve the optimum utilization of spectrum and also obtain a significant reduction in peak to average power ratio (PAPR) for robust transmission, which saves 10% of the battery requirement. On the basis of channel state information, distance statistics were employed to optimize the AMC. The optimum selection of AMC with FBMC will reduce the bit error rate (BER) against multipath fading and ensure the better utilization of available spectrum to attain the optimum utilization of the power amplifier. © 2023 The Authors
