Direct demodulation approach for regular hexagonal QAM constellations
Next-generation wireless systems increasingly rely on millimeter-wave (mm-wave) frequencies to access the high bandwidth required for multi-gigabit and terabit-per-second communications. However, digital signal processing (DSP) faces significant challenges at these extreme data rates. To overcome these limitations, innovative transmission and reception techniques are essential. In this paper, we introduce a power-efficient direct analog demodulation approach for regular Hexagonal QAM (HQAM) constellations. The proposed demodulator utilizes amplitude threshold estimation and phase detection to achieve accurate signal recovery. Analytical and simulation results demonstrate that the proposed analog HQAM demodulation achieves the same bit error rate (BER) performance as its digital counterpart while reducing power consumption.
