Résumé: We develop a multicarrier modulation scheme for transmission of compressed data. The energy allocation among subcarriers is optimized by minimizing a modified symbol error function in either AWGN or Rayleigh fading channels. It is observed that our sensitivity matched multi carrier modulation significantly outperforms the conventional multi carrier modulation. The performance gain in Rayleigh fading channels varies from 0.58 to 3.26 dB depending upon the relative sensitivity of bit groups associated with subchannels.
