Abstract
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with index modulation (OFDM-IM), stands out among conventional communication technologies, as it uses the indices of the available transmit entities. Thanks to such an approach, it offers a novel method for the transmission of extra data bits. Recent years have seen a great interest in chaos-based communications. The spectrum-spreading signals used in chaotic signal modulation technologies are orthogonal to the existing mixed signals. This paper presents how well a non-coherent differential chaos shift keying communication system performs across an AWGN. Different types of detection methods are simulated, bit error rate and power spectral density are calculated and then compared with standard OFDM with index modulation. The results of simulations concerning the performance of a DCSK system, adding to the security of the proposed solution and offering a comparable bit error rate performance, are presented in the paper as well.
