Abstract

Waveform coding is a form of channel coding where a set of waveforms is transformed into a set of orthogonal waveforms, so that the detection process has fewer errors. This chapter presents a method of waveform coding, based on orthogonal codes. In the proposed method, the high-speed data stream is inverse multiplexed into several parallel streams. These parallel streams, now reduced in speed, are grouped into a number of subsets and mapped into a predetermined group of biorthogonal codes and modulated by a bank of modulators using the same carrier frequency. This methodology substantially reduces the required number of waveforms and enhances transmission efficiency. It is also shown that there is a built-in error control mechanism in this scheme. The proposed method is cost-effective and bandwidth efficient.
