A Chaotic Interleaving Scheme for the Continuous Phase Modulation Based Single-Carrier Frequency-Domain Equalization System

In this paper, we propose a chaotic interleaving scheme for the continuous phase modulation based single-carrier frequency-domain equalization (CPM-SC-FDE) system. Chaotic interleaving is used in this scheme to generate permuted versions from the sample sequences to be transmitted, with low correlation among their samples, and hence a better bit error rate (BER) performance can be obtained. The proposed CPM-SC-FDE system with chaotic interleaving combines the advantages of the frequency diversity, the low complexity, and the high power efficiency of the CPM-SC-FDE system and the performance improvements due to chaotic interleaving. The BER performance of the CPM-SC-FDE system with and without chaotic interleaving is evaluated by computer simulations. Also, a comparison between the proposed chaotic interleaving and the conventional block interleaving is performed. Simulation results show that, the proposed chaotic interleaving scheme can greatly improve the performance of the CPM-SC-FDE system. Furthermore, the results show that this scheme outperforms the conventional block interleaving scheme in the CPM-SC-FDE system. The results also show that, the proposed CPM-SC-FDE system with chaotic interleaving provides a good trade-off between system performance and bandwidth efficiency.
