A new carrier index differential chaos shift keying (DCSK) modulation method combining index modulation (IM) with multicarrier DCSK (MC-DCSK) is proposed. Two schemes employing two different index selectors and detectors to implement IM and demodulation are introduced. The new designed index selectors are one-to-one mappings between the index symbols and the carrier activation patterns, which can avoid the disaster caused by the previous designed selectors. Analytical bit error rate expressions of the two systems are derived over the additive white Gaussian noise as well as multipath Rayleigh fading channels. Simulation results verify the superiority of one scheme in energy efficiency and another scheme in spectral efficiency, respectively, compared with MC-DCSK.
