  Multiuser OFDM
Using adaptive modulation the carrier modulation is matched to the SNR, maximising the overall spectral efficiency.
Also as the mobility of the remote station is increased, the adaptive modulation process requires regular updates, further increasing the overhead.
Adaptive frequency hopping reverts to normal random hopping when the velocity is too high for the hopping to keep up with the rate of change of the channel.

A new adaptive frequency hopping technique is proposed for multiuser OFDM such that blocks of carriers are hopped based on the current channel conditions.

Adaptive Moduation(AM) is a technique where the modulation, coding rate, and other signal transmission parameters are dynamically adapted to the changing channel conditions.
The goal of an Adaptive Modulation is to ensure that the most efficient mode is always used, over varying channel conditions, based on a mode selection criterion (maximum data rate, minimum transmit power, etc).
The example in Fig 1 is ideal as it assumes that the modulation level is perfectaly adapted to the short term average SNR and the probability of error as a function of SNR is exactly known.

 Adaptive Coded Modulation for Fading Channels
Adaptive modulation is a powerful technique to improve the energy efficiency and increase the data rate over a fading channel.
Coset codes are a natural choice to use with adaptive modulation since the channel coding and modulation designs are separable.

Adaptive MAC-layer parameters include adaptive frame size and adaptive automatic repeat request (ARQ), which is a retransmission protocol at the link layer of a wireless system that enables recovery from packet errors.
Adaptive modulation is defined as the ability of a basestation to choose the right level of modulation for each transmission to or from a subscriber unit.
Adaptive modulation can adapt in both directions, so if the co-channel interference goes down and the link quality improves, the modulation level should increase.

 Adaptive modulation - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site
Adaptive modulation is a transmission scheme in digital communications where the transmitter adapts its transmission mode in accordance with the channel.
This could be acquired in time division duplex systems where the channel from the transmitter to the receiver is approximately the same as the channel from the receiver to the transmitter.
Adaptive modulation systems improve rate of transmission, and/or bit error rates by exploiting the channel information that is present at the transmitter.

 Technology Overview :: Motorola, formerly Orthogon Systems   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
Motorola employs Adaptive Modulation to optimize signals according to the conditions of the RF path, allowing transmissions to travel from one receiver to the next without signal loss.
With Adaptive Modulation, the radio power output is dynamically modified according to the received signal level, upshifting or downshifting to overcome fading.
Since the channel may vary in intensity on a sub-second basis, adapting the modulation dynamically allows the maximum amount of data possible to be sent across the path while keeping the link quality at the highest level.

 On the Performance of Adaptive Modulation in Cellular Systems
Adaptive modulation techniques have the potential to substantially increase the spectrum efficiency and to provide different levels of service to users, both of which are considered important for third-generation cellular systems.
Specifically, we study the throughput performance gain that may be achieved by combining adaptive modulation and power control.
Although presented in the context of adaptive modulation, the results also apply to other variable rate transmission techniques, e.g., rate adaptive coding schemes, coded modulation schemes, etc. This work provides valuable insight into the performance of variable rate transmission techniques in multi-user environments.

 G.727 5, 4, 3 and 2- bits sample embedded adaptive differential pulse code modulation (ADPCM)
In the Encoder, after the conversion of the A-law or mu-law PCM input signal to uniform PCM, a difference signal is obtained by subtracting an estimate of the input signal from the input signal itself.
An adaptive 4-, 8-, 16- or 32-level quantizer is used to assign 2, 3, 4 or 5 binary digits to the value of the difference signal for transmission to the decoder.
Both the reconstructed signal and the quantized difference signal are operated upon by an adaptive predictor which produces the estimate of the input signal, thereby completing the feedback loop.

 Aperto - PacketWave Family
The Aperto system has the ability to dynamically adapt modulation and coding levels as a function of the link between the base station and each subscriber unit.
Dynamic modulation extends the radius of coverage of the cell, so that subscribers that are closer to the base station receive 16QAM reception, while those further away receive QPSK
Adaptive coding and modulation helps to capture the best of both worlds, since the system is able to supply Level 1 to all subscriber units that have a good link to the base station, and Levels 2 and higher to subscriber units whose link is not as good.

 Adaptive Equalization   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
In conjunction with Wideband Modulation, Adaptive's products use an Adaptive Equalizer in which each node on the network is an independent transceiver able to adaptively equalize to powerline distortion at different locations and different times.
The equalizer boosts the signal at different frequencies to account for differences in attenuation caused by the powerline, allowing the receiver to "hear" the powerline signal as it was intended.
Combined with maximum probability of reception enabled by fast synchronization and short frames, adaptive equalization serves as the foundation for very low latency isochronous communications.

 An Adaptive Modulation Scheme for Simultaneous Voice and Data Transmission over Fading Channels
We propose a new adaptive modulation technique for simultaneous voice and data transmission over fading channels and study its performance.
It uses fixed-rate binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation on the Q channel for voice, and variable-rate M -ary amplitude modulation (M -AM) on the I channel for data.
As the channel degrades, the modulation gradually reduces its data throughput and reallocates most of its available power to ensure a continuous and satisfactory voice transmission.

 search Abstract
For such channels, we propose novel adaptive power control and bit loading algorithms to maximize the spectral efficiency of the OFDM system while minimizing the required transmit power at some specified BER level.
Unlike its existing counterparts, our adaptive modulation algorithm adapts the subcarrier transmission parameters based on the subcarrier fading statistics rather than the instantaneous channel conditions.
A new closed-form expression with good inversion property for QAM BER in Rician fading channel is also developed to facilitate the computation of the optimum adaptive modulation settings.

 PRMA-assisted Adaptive Modulation
Since the required SNR difference amongst the various modulation schemes used is compensated by the internal sub-division of the cell, in all areas of the cell a similar speech quality can be maintained.
However, in the proposed PRMA-assisted adaptive modulation scheme mobile stations (MS) can reserve more than one slot in order to deliver up to four bursts per speech frame, when DPSK is invoked towards the cell edges.
The BER curves for these modulation schemes in narrow-band Rayleigh channels with second order diversity, a propagation frequency of 2 GHz and a vehicular speed of 15 m/s are shown in Figures 1 and 2 in case of the GSM- and DECT-type systems, respectively.

 Improving amplifier's efficiency using a linearizer in conjunction with adaptive bias modulation - improving amplifier ...
By employing a hybrid combination of adaptive bias and linearization, it is possible to improve amplifier efficiencies over a range of RF powers for a varied type of modulation scheme.
In the case of a Class AB amplifier, the efficiency with adaptive bias does decrease with falling drive as Class AB transistor are sensitive to external biasing arrangements and efficiencies fall away more rapidly than theory would suggest.
It is possible to use dynamic modulation of the power supply to track the signal but this generates distortion products with the systems that are problematic (alteration of the bias and power supply results in unwanted modulation of the RF signal).
