Zero-Crossing Precoding with Maximum Distance to the Decision Threshold for Channels with 1-Bit Quantization and Oversampling

Low-resolution devices are promising for systems that demand low energy consumption and low complexity as required in IoT systems. In this study, we propose a novel waveform for bandlimited channels with 1-bit quantization and oversampling at the receivers. The proposed method implies that the information is conveyed within the time instances of zero-crossings which is then utilized in combination with a Gray-coding scheme. Unlike the existing method, the proposed method does not require optimization and transmission of a dynamic codebook. The proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art method in terms of bit error rate.
