Abstract:
Space shift keying (SSK) is a spectrally efficient and low-complexity technique that only uses antenna index to convey information. Combining SSK with cooperative communication, the transmission reliability of SSK system can be improved effectively. In this paper, considering imperfect channel information, the performance of cooperative SSK system with amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying protocol is investigated, and the effect of estimation error on the performance is analyzed. According to the performance analysis, the probability density function and moment generating function of effective signal-to-noise ratio are derived, respectively. Using these results, the closed-form expression of average bit error rate (BER) can be achieved. Meanwhile, the asymptotically approximated BER and the corresponding diversity order analysis are presented for the performance evaluation. By computer simulations, the validness of the presented theoretical analysis is verified, and the theoretical BERs with different estimation errors are shown to be close to those of the corresponding simulations.
