Abstract
Multi-carrier index keying (MCIK) is a recently
developed transmission technique that exploits the sub-carrier
indices as an additional degree of freedom for data transmission.
This paper investigates the performance of a low complexity
detection scheme with diversity reception for MCIK with
orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). For the
performance evaluation, an exact and an approximate closed
form expression for the pairwise error probability (PEP) of a
greedy detector (GD) with maximal ratio combining (MRC) is
derived. The presented results show that the performance of the
GD is significantly improved when MRC diversity is employed.
The proposed hybrid scheme is found to outperform maximum
likelihood (ML) detection with a substantial reduction on the
associated computational complexity.
