Performance of 16QAM on UV Communication

Article Preview

Abstract:

Explorations on ultraviolet (UV) communication field are relatively little among wireless communication for lacking of suitable simulation equipments. Possible mode was investigated on UV by combining mature coding techniques with gradually improved multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology. A candidate modulation method, the 16-ary quadrature-amplitude modulation (16QAM), was analyzed for UV communication using MIMO technology. Comparisons between 16QAM and OOK were presented to better depict characteristics of 16QAM through simulation. The result shows that under specific bit error rate (BER) requirements for most communication environments, 16QAM can help save transmitting power and enlarges transmission capacity.
