An anti-noise modem for visible light communication systems using the improved M-ary position phase shift keying

摘要

AbstractIn this paper, we propose an anti-noise modem based on the improved M-ary position phase shift keying (MPPSK) for visible light communication (VLC) systems. The line spectral interferences in the original MPPSK are theoretically analyzed and approximately mitigated by adopting a set of improved waveform samples. Then, within one symbol duration, the peak envelopes of the received signals are captured at each of synchronization bit with a quantity of sampling offsets to improve the proportion of the reliable data tones. In addition, a novel demodulation scheme using an amplitude-position detector based on soft decision is proposed to recover the MPPSK symbols, which can minimize the contamination influence of channel noise on symbol decision. With this scheme, the false alarm error and wrong slot error caused by the multipath fading in VLC channel can be effectively corrected and the bit error rate (BER) performance of the system is significantly improved. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme reduce the required signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at least by 2?dB for BER?=?10?4, which show the feasibility and validity of this anti-noise modem.]]>
