Abstract
Transmission of information over a discrete-time memoryless Rician fading channel is considered, where neither the receiver nor the transmitter knows the fading coefficients. The spectral-efficiency/bit-energy tradeoff in the low-power regime is examined when the input has limited peakedness. It is shown that if a fourth-moment input constraint is imposed, or the input peak-to-average power ratio is limited, then in contrast to the behavior observed in average-power-limited channels, the minimum bit energy is not always achieved at zero spectral efficiency. The low-power performance is also characterized when there is a fixed peak limit that does not vary with the average power. A new signaling scheme that overlays phase-shift keying on ON-OFF keying (OOK) is proposed and shown to be optimally efficient in the low-power regime.Keywords
