Abstract
A novel differential chaos shift keying scheme with transmit diversity, referred to as <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">TD-DCSK scheme</i> , is proposed in this letter. The proposed TD-DCSK scheme can achieve full diversity and high data rate by advisably designing the space-time (ST) block of the transmitted signal. With the designed ST block, the transmitter with multiple transmit antennas in the TD-DCSK scheme requires only one radio frequency chain, which is particularly important for keeping low hardware complexity. We derive the theoretical expression of bit-error rate (BER) and diversity order of the TD-DCSK scheme over multipath Rayleigh fading channels, and analyze its hardware complexity. Simulation results illustrate the superiority of the proposed scheme and validate the accuracy of the theoretical derivation. The proposed TD-DCSK scheme stands out as a promising solution for low-power and low-cost short-range wireless communications.
