Design of High data Rate FM-QCSK Chaotic Communication System

The frequency modulated quadrature chaos shift keying FM-QCSK system is one of the most efficient systems in chaotic literature. One of the problems in this system is that half the bit duration is used for sending a chaotic reference signal which leads to increase the energy losses and reduces the data rate. In this paper, a novel scheme to enhance the performance of FM-QCSK system has been proposed. With the proposed scheme, FM-QCSK would be able to operate at higher data rates with reduced bit -error probability BER and energy consumption. The basic modification introduced by the proposed scheme is the use one reference chaotic chip to transmit multi informat ion-bearing ch ips in both in-phase and quadrature-phase channels. The results showed that the proposed scheme have achieved more than 3 dB and 5 dB gains in SNR for AWGN and Rayleigh mult ipath fading channels respectively at BER=10 over the conventional one. The results also showed that the optimum number in formation-bearing chip can be send per reference is 8. The theoretical expression of BER in AW GN channel has also been derived for the proposed scheme.
