Geometric representation of signals can provide a compact characterization of signals and can simplify analysis of theirperformance as modulation signals.
Orthonormal bases are essential in geometry. Let be a set of signals.
Define where .
Define and where
In general
The process continues until all of the signals are exhausted. The results are orthogonal signals with unit energy, where . If the signals are linearly independent, then .
The signals can be represented as
Set of 4 equal energy biorthogonal signals. , , , .
The orthonormal basis , where
, , , . The four signals can be geometrically represented using the 4-vector of projection coefficients , , , and as a set of constellation points.
