Performance of novel architectures based on index modulation, considering multiuser interference and intersymbols

Abstract

In this thesis, we are interested in analyzing and studying the performance of the different architectures based on index modulation (IM). Extension architectures for a multi-user context are of interest, adopting CDMA-based techniques. In order to combat channel frequency selectivity in communications that have a very high data rate, we propose to combine conventional IM with GFDM. As a contribution, we propose an innovative scheme, based on multiple access IM, using a frequency selective channel in the Terahertz band in an In-VIVO environment. Very high data throughput can be offered while ensuring good communication in the modern medical network. The overall obtained results are considered satisfactory and open other interesting perspectives of research
