Constellation shaping is an energy efficiency enhancement method for digital signal modulation that improves upon amplitude and phase-shift keying (APSK) and conventional quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) by modifying the uniform distribution of the data symbols to match the channel. In a channel corrupted by an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), this implies transmitting low-energy signals more frequently than high-energy signals with the target to approach a Gaussian distribution of the transmission power.

dbo:abstract
  • Constellation shaping is an energy efficiency enhancement method for digital signal modulation that improves upon amplitude and phase-shift keying (APSK) and conventional quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) by modifying the uniform distribution of the data symbols to match the channel. In a channel corrupted by an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), this implies transmitting low-energy signals more frequently than high-energy signals with the target to approach a Gaussian distribution of the transmission power. In digital signal modulation, information bits modulate the carrier electromagnetic wave signal to a set of desired phase, frequency and amplitude states. This set of allowed states is called a constellation. Typically, the probability of an information bit to be a 0 is the same as that of a 1, leading to all states from the constellation to appear with an equal probability. However, optimal transmission through most practical channels, like the AWGN, require a non-equal probability of the transmission symbols. A shaped constellation transmission sends some signal combinations more often and others less frequently to optimize the signal quality at the destination, or to maintain the same quality using less transmission energy.
