Abstract

A new scheme, called code index modulation-spread spectrum (CIM-SS), is presented in this paper. This scheme is based on direct sequence-spread spectrum (DS-SS) modulation and can achieve higher data rate than the conventional DS-SS with lower energy consumption. At the transmitter, the bit stream is divided into blocks of two bits each. For each block, only the first bit is spread by one of two spreading codes while the second bit selects the code to be used. The receiver estimates both the code and the transmitted bit. The performance of the CIM-SS is analyzed and compared to the conventional DS-SS systems.
