Composition Modulation

In this paper, we propose novel modulation concepts that we call weak composition modulation (WCM) and composition modulation (CM). We use weak and strict compositions of an integer to form codewords of WCM and CM, respectively. For the proposed schemes, we depict a practical model using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). We also analyze the error performance of the proposed schemes. It is shown that the proposed schemes are capable of outperforming conventional OFDM and OFDM with index modulation (OFDM-IM) in terms of error performance.
