Bit error rate improvement for chaos shift keying chaotic communication systems
Min Long, Yunfei Chen, Fei Peng · IET Communications · 2012
The bit error rate (BER) performance of chaos shift keying is improved for an additive white Gaussian noise channel by applying a trimming operation to the Chebyshev polynomial function of order 2 and the piecewise linear map to make the input source more Gaussian distributed. Analytical expressions for the improved BER are also derived based on the curve-fitting approximation. Numerical results show that the proposed method can achieve performance gains of up to 3.5 dB in signal-to-noise ratio over the conventional method without trimming.
