Time reversal (TR) is considered as a promising technique for green and multi-user communications thanks to its time and space focusing properties. TR can be viewed as a precoding scheme which can be combined with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and easily carried out in a multiple transmit antenna context. This paper analyzes the performance of TR for a multiple-input single-output (MISO) OFDM system and provides a comparison with maximum ratio transmission (MRT) and equal gain transmission (EGT) precoding techniques. The analytical performance of the three precoding techniques is derived by computing the capacity and the bit error rate (BER) as a function of the transmit signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). First, the capacity analysis highlights the ability of the TR system to provide higher bit rates than the MRT system at low SNRs, while the capacity of the MRT system is the highest at high SNRs. From the obtained BER analytical expressions, the diversity exploitation of each system is discussed. In particular, it is shown that the TR system only exploits half the available diversity, while the systems using EGT or MRT exploit the full diversity. Hence, contrary to what is expected from the theoretical capacity analysis, the TR system is shown to underperform the other precoding schemes in terms of BER. To overcome such a drawback, the combination of TR with classical adaptive modulation techniques is studied, allowing the achievable throughput to be increased without destroying the focusing properties of TR. It is then observed that TR takes advantage of adaptive modulations and outperforms the other schemes at low SNRs. In this study, analytical results and closed-form expressions of capacity and BER performance are provided and confirmed through Monte Carlo simulations.
In this paper, for the first time, we propose two new solutions to boost the data rate between small connected objects such as glasses and cams and the 5th generation (5G) mobile network, based on spatial modulation, single carrier waveform, compact reconfigurable antennas at the object side and massive multiple input multiple output (M-MIMO) at the network side. In the first new wireless communication system, a "transmitting object" uses transmit spatial modulation with a compact reconfigurable antenna and a constant envelop amplifier to transmit in high data rate with a low complexity and low power consumption. The space-time digital processing capability of the M-MIMO 5G base station is used to detect such signal. In the second new wireless communication system, a "receiving object" uses receive spatial modulation, a compact multiport antenna and a low complexity detection algorithm to receive in high data rate with a low complexity signal processing. The space-time beamforming capability of the M-MIMO 5G base stations is exploited to deliver a signal that is pre-equalized enough to be detected by the object. For the first time, we present experiments showing that M-MIMO allows for the reintroduction of single carrier modulation waveform. For the first time, we present performance results obtained with real existing compact antennas and compact reconfigurable antennas, showing that the two new communication systems outperform conventional modulation in terms of energy efficiency and complexity.INDEX TERMS Spatial modulation (SM), receive antenna shift keying (RASK), beamforming, multiple input multiple output (MIMO), Reconfigurable Antennas, Compact Antennas.
