“…Simulation: The performance of the proposed HCPM algorithm with the utility function F = F 2 1 F 2 was tested in a simulation for a candidate pool M S,K of the following modulation schemes: 4 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), 16 QAM, 32 QAM, 64 QAM, binary phase shift keying (PSK), 4 PSK, 8 PSK and 16 PSK. The simulation did not include any effects (frequency offset, phase offset and so on) that have to be solved in the preprocessing block.…”
