Abstract
In order to expand the application of differential chaos shift keying (DCSK) technology in Internet of Things, a novel ambient backscatter communication system is proposed. In this system, the ambient short reference DCSK (SR-DCSK) signal is ultilized as radio frequency (RF) source, and the modulation waveform design can be easily generated by the state transition of the SR-DCSK modulation symbol according to the transmitted information bit, so as to eliminate strong direct-link interference. Furthermore, a noise reduction method based on averaging operation at the detector is designed for enhancing the bit error rate (BER) performance. Theoretical BER expression over Rayleigh fading channel is derived and validated via simulation. Moreover, the performance of the proposed system is compared with those of other DCSK-based systems.
