Abstract

In this work, we provide the first attempt to evaluate error performance of Rate-Splitting (RS) based transmission strategies with constellation-constrained coding/modulation. The consider scenario is an overloaded multigroup multicast, where RS can mitigate the inter-group interference thus achieve a better max-min fair group rate over conventional transmission strategies. We bridge the RS-based rate optimization with modulationcoding scheme selection, and implement them in a developed transceiver framework with either linear or non-linear receiver, where the latter equips with a generalized sphere decoder. Simulation results of a coded bit error rate demonstrate that, while the conventional strategies suffer from the error floor in the considered scenario, the RS-based strategy delivers a superior performance even with low complexity receiver techniques. The proposed analysis, transceiver framework and evaluation methodology provide a generic baseline solution to validate the effectiveness of the RS-based system design in practice. Index Terms—Rate-splitting, overloaded system, multigroup multicast, rank-deficient, generalized sphere decoder, coded bit error rate.
