Turbo equalization and demodulation of multicode space time codes
This work considers a high rate, multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system using multiple codes, as well as channel coding and space time (ST) coding. The transmitter consists of a channel encoder followed by parallel Linear Dispersion Codes (LDC) ST encoders using different spreading codes. The iterative receiver consists of a soft input and soft output (SISO) demodulator, followed by a SIS...
متن کاملSpace-Time Turbo Codes
Introduction: Recently, there has been a surge of interests in the design of the so called \space{time" codes which take advantage of both the spatial diversity provided by multiple antennas and the temporal diversity available with time{varying fading. The previous proposed space{time codes were mainly based on trellis codes or orthogonal block codes. In those codes, the number of transmitter ...
متن کاملOPSK Space-Time Turbo Codes
This paper proposes a class of full space diversity QPSK space-time codes based on parallel concatenated convolutional (turbo) codes. A rank criterion of full space diversity is used in the design. Compared with space-time trellis codes, the simulations show it has robust performance at both quasi-static fading channel and time varying fading channel.
متن کاملImage transmission using unequal error protected multi-fold turbo codes over a two-user power-line binary adder channel
Impulsive noise is one of the major challenges for reliable transmission over power lines. Interleavers provide higher protection against the impulsive noise by dispersing information across the channel and spreading the burst of errors over multiple codewords. Multi-fold turbo (MFT) coding is a technique that improves the communication reliability using multiple interleavers. In the MFT codes,...
متن کاملSpace-Time Coding for UMTS. Performance Evaluation in Combination with Convolutional and Turbo Coding
Space-time codes provide both diversity and coding gain when using multiple transmit antennas to increase spectral efficiency over wireless communications systems. Space-time block codes have already been included in the standardization process of UMTS in conjunction with conventional channel codes (convolutional and turbo codes). We discuss different encoding and decoding strategies when trans...
