Packet-Layer Forward Error Correction Coding for Fading Mitigation
نویسنده
چکیده
In an on/off-keying atmospheric optical communication system, index of refraction turbulence and PAT (pointing, acquisition and tracking) instabilities create strong and very slow fading compared to the usually used high data-rates. With this channel behavior, forward error correction can only work effectively if the codeword-length is longer than the mean duration of fade. Therefore packet-layer coding is a favorable way to implement a code with codewords longer than typical fading events. A code validation platform based on Ethernet transmission technology and packet-layer coding using UDP packets was built up to prove the performance of packet-layer coding. In this paper a demonstrator setup as well as results from a free-space transmission experiment are presented.

Combating Packet Loss in OPS networks: A Case for Network Coding
Fighting packet loss in optical packet-switched networks has been a priority in the optical research community in recent years. In this short paper, we present a scheme which utilizes both forward error correction at the ingress node and in-network coding at intermediary optical packet switches to reduce packet loss due to contention at the network layer. Initial analysis shows that if used in ...

In this paper, we address the study of a broadband satellite system based on DVB-S2 for interactive services in a mobile scenario. In particular, we focus on the railway scenario when the train is moving with high speed under LOS (Line of Sight) conditions considering also the atmospheric effects for Ku band. We aim at the design of fading countermeasure to compensate the impact of short and me...
متن کاملPerformance Comparison of Decoding Algorithms used in MIMO-OFDM Systems while Combating Channel Impairments
At wideband frequencies the channel impairments are more severe since the coherent bandwidth of the transmitted signal is smaller than that of the channel. As the characteristic of the channel is found to be time varying, the mitigation methods are too fragile against such impairments like fading, attenuation, noise, etc. So it is mandatory that the methods to be used in broadband systems to co...
