Digital modulation increases information capacity, data security, and system availability while maintaining high communication quality. As a result, digital modulation techniques are in higher demand than analog modulation techniques due to their ability to transmit larger amounts of data. Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK), Frequency Shift Keying (FSK), Phase Shift Keying (PSK), Differential Phase Shift Keying (DPSK), and Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) are critical components of current communications systems development, particularly for broadband wireless communications. In this paper, the comparison of bit error rate performance of different modulation schemes (BPSK, QPSK, and16-QAM) and various equalization techniques such as constant modulus algorithm (CMA) and maximum likelihood sequence estimate (MLSE) for the AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels is analyzed using Simulink. BPSK outperforms QPSK and 16-QAM when compared to the other two digital modulation schemes. Among the three digital modulation schemes, BPSK is showing better performance as compared to QPSK and 16-QAM.

A novel chaotic communication system, named Orthogonality-based Reference Modulated-Differential Chaos Shift Keying (ORM-DCSK), is proposed to enhance the performance of RM-DCSK. By designing an orthogonal chaotic generator (OCG), the intrasignal interference components in RM-DCSK are eliminated. Also, the signal frame format is expanded so the average bit energy is reduced. As a result, the proposed system has less interference in decision variables. Furthermore, to investigate the bit error rate (BER) performance over Rayleigh fading channels, the MISO-ORM-DCSK is studied. The BER expressions of the new system are derived and analyzed over AWGN channel and multipath Rayleigh fading channel. All simulation results not only show that the proposed system can obtain significant improvement but also verify the analysis in theory.

The major drawback of the differential chaos shift keying (DCSK) system is that equal time and energy are spent on the reference and data signal. This paper presents the design and performance analysis of a short reference multifold rate DCSK (SRMR-DCSK) system to overcome the major drawback. The SRMR-DCSK system is proposed to enhance the data rate of the short reference differential chaos shift keying (SR-DCSK) system. By recycling each reference signal in SR-DCSK, the data slot carries N bits of data and by P times. As a result, compared with SR-DCSK, the proposed system has a higher data transmission rate and evaluates the energy efficiency with respect to the conventional DCSK system. To further improve the bit-error-rate (BER) performance over Rayleigh fading channels, the multiple-input single-output SRMR-DCSK (MISO-SRMR-DCSK) is also studied. The BER expression of the proposed system is derived based on Gaussian approximation (GA), and simulations in Rayleigh fading channels are performed. Simulation results show a perfect match with the analytical expression.
