    Novel OFDM System Using Orthogonal Pilot Symbols with Subcarrier Index Modulation
    (Bajece (İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi), 2019) ACAR, YUSUF; Çolak, S. Aldırmaz
    In this work, two new transmission schemes are proposed to increase the spectral efficiency of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). In practical OFDM systems, channel estimation is usually performed by employing pilot symbols which is based on inserting known symbols in the time-frequency domain. However, pilot symbol designing is one of the bottlenecks of OFDM systems limiting the increase of spectral efficiency. We apply new pilot design structures, which are use orthogonal Walsh-Hadamard codes. To increase the spectral efficiency of OFDM systems, we assign the extra bits to the index of the each orthogonal Walsh-Hadamard codes. Simulation and theoretical results show that proposed methods have better performance than conventional OFDM with higher spectral efficiency. Moreover, no more energy is spent for additional information carried in the indices compared to classical OFDM systems. As a result, proposed methods provide both spectral efficiency and energy efficiency.
