TRANSMITTER FOR SPATIAL MODULATION IN A HIGH-EFFICIENCY WIRELESS LOCAL-AREA NETWORK

摘要

A transmitter for spatial modulation in a high-efficiency wireless local-area network is disclosed. An apparatus is disclosed that comprises memory and circuitry coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry configured to split a data bitstream between an antenna bitstream and a symbol bitstream, encode the data bitstream into a plurality of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols from a signal constellation, encode the antenna bitstream into a plurality of antenna indices from a space constellation, map symbols of the plurality of symbols to a plurality of subcarriers of a channel and associate the symbols with an index of the plurality of indices. The processing circuitry may be configured to configure the access point for transmission of the symbols on the channel in accordance with an associated one of the antenna indices.
