This document discusses adaptive communication techniques using soft computing methods. It proposes using Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) combined with a Fuzzy Rule Base System (FRBS) for adaptive coding, modulation, and power allocation in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system. It compares the proposed approach to other techniques like Simulated Annealing and FRBS, and to a fixed power scheme. The key contributions of the paper are applying ACO and FRBS together for adaptive parameter selection in OFDM to maximize capacity while meeting power and bit error rate constraints.
