In this paper, we propose an Adaptive Modulation and Coding (AMC) scheme using relay protocols generally known as Relay Node (RN). The AMC scheme is used for improving the throughput and a reliability of a communication system, because of the nature of different modulation and coding schemes. We analyze the performance of relay protocols with the AMC scheme and observed that relay protocols with the AMC scheme is capable of providing better average throughput at a lower Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) level as compared to the conventional scheme with no AMC. We perform Monte Carlo simulations with Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) parameters to prove the performance comparison of adaptive Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) relay protocols with the non-adaptive MCS relay protocols. The simulation results of the proposed system with adaptive MCS prove that among the Amplify-and-Forward (AF), Decode-and-Forward (DF) and DeModulate-and-Forward (DMF), the DMF protocol performs best at a lower SNR value and also provides better average throughput.

In this paper, we studied hierarchical channel coding scheme using unequal error protection method fur consecutively broadcastingservice under the rain attenuation of Ka band satellite broadcasting. Unlike time-sharing methods, which are design for different channel coding scheme in according to different modulation, unequal error protection method is made in such way that minimum distance between signals are different for importance of signals with same modulation. Consequently we proposed optimal method according to performance analysis.

Adaptive modulation and Coding(AMC) scheme is promising technique to support the demands for high data rates and wideband proposed for 4G mobile communication system standards. In this paper, adaptive modulation and coding(AMC) based on OFDM system is analyzed through simulation for single user case and compared with SISO-OFDM and SFBC(Space frequency block coding)-OFDM. The performance analysis in terms of capacity for downlink system environments with different values of constellation size under multipath fading channel is done. The adaptive modulation and coding technique is based on perfect estimation channel. It has been observed that SFBC(Space-frequency block coding)-OFDM system gives better performance in terms of capacity.

This paper is focused on the modulation scheme detection of the IEEE 802.11 standard. In the IEEE 802.11ac standard, the information of the modulation scheme is indicated by the modulation coding scheme (MCS) included in the VHT-SIG-A of the preamble field. Transmitting end determines the MCS index suitable for the low signal to noise ratio (SNR) situation and transmits the data accordingly. Since data field decoding can take place only when the receiving end acquires the MCS index information of the frame. Therefore, accurate MCS detection must be guaranteed before data field decoding. However, since the MCS index information is the information obtained through preamble field decoding, the detection rate can be affected significantly in a low SNR situation. In this paper, we propose a relatively robust modulation classification method based on deep learning to solve the low detection rate problem with a conventional method caused by a low SNR.

This paper proposes an alternate time-switched multiplexed space-time block coding technique for orthogonal frequency division modulation systems. The traditional multiplexed space-time block coding technique can provide more data rate owing to multiple transmit and receive technique, which causes a lot of hardware burden. Alternate time-switched scheme of transmitting time-domain zeros can reduce this hardware burden by half with time-domain switches only. Simulation results show that alternate time-switched scheme has almost same performance with half of baseband and RF modules in comparison with a multiplexed space-time block coding for orthogonal frequency division modulation systems with twice repetitive transmission.

In the wireless adaptive modulation and coding(AMC) systems, the modulation type of user's connection can be changed dynamically. and the ongoing connection might fail due to the change of modulation. In this paper, we approach the AMC-induced CAC problem by focusing on the guaranteed connection. Three kinds of calls, new, handoff, and modulation-changed calls, are considered. We propose a modified guard channel CAC scheme that allows the modulation-changed and handoff calls to use the guard channel. Then we analyze a Markov model for the CAC scheme with long-term AMC in mind. According to the simulation results, the proposed approach reduces the call dropping probability for modulation-changed calls, which suggests the threshold of guard channels can be determined based on the proposed approach.

The proposal set out in this paper, is the Adaptive-MCM(Modulation, Coding and MIMO) system, which results from the combination of adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) and multiple input multiple output (MIMO) schemes. The performance of this system is analyzed through computer simulation. By using the MIMO scheme adaptively as well, the proposed Adaptive-MCM system, presents a better improvement of data rate and error performance compared to the AMC system. The throughput performance of the Adaptive-MCM system is analyzed and compared with the throughput performance of Non-Adaptive-MCM Systems. As a result of the simulation, we can infer that, at a fixed MCM level, there is an improvement of the trade-off between secure Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and a high data rate. Consequently, this trade-off improvement results in a better average data rate.

In this paper, we propose group Manchester code (GM) modulation scheme for medical in-body wireless body area network (WBAN) systems. In IEEE, the WBAN system is assigned as 802.15. Task Group 6 (TG 6), and the related standardization is being progressed, Recently, in this Group, group pulse position modulation (GPPM), which can obtain data rate increase by grouping pulse position modulation (PPM) symbols, is proposed as a new modulation scheme for low-power operation of WBAN system. However, the conventional method suffers from BER performance degradation due to the absence of gray coding and its demodulation characteristics. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a modified GM scheme which groups Manchester code instead of PPM. In the proposed GM scheme, a low-complexity maximum likelihood (ML) demodulation method is employed in order to maximize the BER performances, Also, log likelihood ratio (LLR) decision method is proposed to employ the Turbo code as forward error correction (FEC), Finally, we verified that the proposed method has a good performance and is an appropriate scheme for in-body WBAN system through extensive performance evaluation.

This paper proposes a link adaptation method for Underwater Internet of Things (IoT), which reduces power consumption of sensor nodes and improves the throughput of network in underwater IoT network. Adaptive Modulation and Coding (AMC) technique is one of link adaptation methods. AMC uses the strong correlation between Signal Noise Rate (SNR) and Bit Error Rate (BER), but it is difficult to apply in underwater IoT as it is. Therefore, we propose the machine learning based AMC technique for underwater environments. The proposed Modulation Coding and Scheme (MCS) prediction model predicts transmission method to achieve target BER value in underwater channel environment. It is realistically difficult to apply the predicted transmission method in real underwater communication in reality. Thus, this paper uses the high accuracy BER prediction model to measure the performance of MCS prediction model. Consequently, the proposed AMC technique confirmed the applicability of machine learning by increase the probability of communication success.
