2D Spatial Indexing for Generalized and Quadrature Spatial Modulation in PASS

Abanoub Kamel, Ibrahim Al-Nahhal

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.
