Abstract

Synchronized multi-pulse PPM “SMPPM” is a new proposed modulation scheme based on MPPM proposed for wireless optical systems. The proposed scheme resolves the symbol synchronization problem which may simplify the encoding and the decoding operations. It shows an important improvement in terms of data speed and bandwidth efficiency compared with conventional MPPM. On the other hand, SMPPM modulation shows a moderate power efficiency. In this article, we present the coding algorithm, expressions of spectral efficiency, normalized power requirements, and the data rate normalized to PPM, and we also present comparison of results with conventional MPPM.
