Abstract

The application of radio frequency (RF) mirror media-based modulation (MbM) for the Golden code (GcMbM) is investigated. GcMbM improves upon the achievable spectral efficiency/error performance of the conventional Golden code. The analytical error performance of the conventional Golden code has not been presented in the literature; hence, the analytical average bit error probability (ABEP) based on the union bound is presented and validates Monte Carlo simulation results at high signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). The ABEP analysis is extended to GcMbM and validates simulation results at high SNRs.
