Abstract :
This letter proposes a new pulse position modulation (PPM) combined with coding scheme for wireless body area network (WBAN) system. By utilizing redundant time slots in grouped PPM symbols, we incorporate a low-complexity block code to achieve coding gain without bit-rate reduction. Simulations and FPGA elaboration verify the proposed joint modulation and coding scheme.
