In this letter, three novel spatial modulation (SM) schemes specifically designed for pinching-antenna systems (PASS) are proposed, offering a flexible trade-off between bit error rate (BER) performance and decoder computational complexity. The proposed one-dimensional quadrature SM (1D-QSM) scheme exploits dual waveguides to independently transmit the orthogonal symbol components to eliminate mutual interference. Meanwhile, the 2D-QSM and 2D-generalized SM (2D-GSM) schemes jointly utilize waveguide and pinch indices to enhance spectral efficiency. Results demonstrate that 1D/2D-QSM schemes achieve significantly lower computational complexity and superior BER performance at low spectral efficiencies compared to existing literature and the proposed 2D-GSM. In contrast, 2D-GSM provides enhanced reliability at high spectral efficiencies, outperforming both existing literature and the proposed 1D/2D-QSM schemes. Finally, analytical upper bounds for BER and decoder computational complexity are rigorously derived and validated through simulations.
Grant-Free (GF) random access is promising for low Earth orbit satellite Internet due to its reduced access latency. However, existing schemes suffer from poor performance in massive connectivity scenarios. To address this challenge, we firstly propose an iterative residual feedb…
Three-dimensional (3D) radio map (RM) is a key enabler for environment-aware communications in low-altitude wireless scenarios by providing site-specific channel priors indexed by spatial locations. However, existing 3D RM construction methods lack effective modeling of the heigh…
