Abstract

Since its advent, wavelet coding has been recognized as a promising technique for wireless transmission systems, especially due to its low decoding complexity and good performance over multipath fading. However, this technique requires unusual modulation schemes in order to be fully exploited. A BER analysis of wavelet-coded transmission systems over Rayleigh fading channels is presented in this work. This analysis is used in the design of novel signal constellations for wavelet-coded systems by means of numerical performance optimization. Numerical results obtained from analysis and simulations show that the wavelet-coded systems derived herein have very good performance characteristics over fading channels.
