| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
There is a shortage of available bandwidth in wireless communications, and it becomes crucial to achieve high performance in the physical layer. In this paper, we present a method to solve the problem of pilot overhead needed for channel estimation and that of power consumption due to RF circuits, which is imposed by a massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system that uses a massive number of antenna elements at the base station. The benefits of a multi-antenna system configured with a single RF circuit transmitter, called spatial modulation (index modulation), are analytically evaluated on the reduction of power consumption. We also proposed reducing the pilot overhead by utilizing differential encoding and non-coherent detection, as well as semi-blind joint channel estimation and data detection.
