Abstract

The recent definition of hardware system models for space modulation techniques has provided a pathway to physical implementation of such systems. Space Shift Keying (SSK), being at the forefront of all these definitions, implements a pure form of space modulation that does not require a traditional RF chain that generates baseband symbols. On the other hand, compact, SDR-enabled, platforms powered by computationally powerful SoCs, are also becoming increasingly popular in prototyping wireless systems. In this work, we leverage commercially available SDR-enabled platforms, based on the Xilinx Zynq SoC and the Analog Devices AD9361 analog front end, to implement an entry level SSK system.

Keywords: SDR Space modulation Zynq
