In this paper, we investigate the performance of a spatial modulation scheme that combines the energy efficiency of pulse position modulation (PPM) with the spectral efficiency of generalized space shift keying (GSSK) for optical wireless communication system. The combined scheme is called generalized spatial pulse position modulation (GSPPM). We present the error performance analysis and validate the results through simulation. Error performance results show that the upper bound derived in the theoretical analysis is tight for all cases when the symbol error rate is below 0.1. The influence of parameters such as channel path gain and number of PPM slots on GSPPM's performance is illustrated. GSPPM is compared with some of the existing spatial modulation techniques, and results show that GSPPM provides an attractive trade-off between energy and spectral efficiency.
