This paper proposes a new block coded quadrature amplitude modulation (BC-QAM) scheme, which is designed by an optimization technique based on simulated annealing. Simulated annealing is an effective nonlinear optimization technique and can be applied to both the discrete and the continuous optimization problems. In this paper, the simulated annealing technique is used to design the optimum BC-QAM signal, which minimizes the upper bound on the bit error rate (BER) in a Rayleigh fading channel. The computer simulation shows that the proposed BC-QAM can improve the BER performance. This paper also proposes a simplified design method to reduce the number of variables to be optimized. The proposed simplified method optimizes the in-phase and quadrature components of the BC-QAM signal separately. The computer simulation also shows that the BC-QAM designed by the simplified method gives little degradation on the BER performance, although the simplified method can significantly reduce the number of optimization variables.
