Faster-Than-Nyquist Signaling with Differential Encoding and Non Coherent Detection
Takumi Ishihara, Shinya Sugiura
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel differential faster-than-Nyquist (DFTN) signaling scheme, which allows us to dispense with any channel estimation at the receiver while benefiting from the rate boost of faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signaling. At the transmitter, differentially modulated binary phase-shift keying (DBPSK) symbols are transmitted with the symbol interval that is smaller than that defined by the Nyquist criterion. The receiver noncoherently estimates the DBPSK symbols, suffering from the effects of FTN-specific inter-symbol interference (ISI), based on frequency-domain equalization. This is enabled, because FTN-specific lSI is deterministic, by assuming that the FTN's symbol packing ratio and the roll-off factor of a shaping filter are known in advance at the receiver.
