SUMMARY In order to exploit fully the frequency diversity benefits of multicarrier modulation (MCM), and the very nature of the frequency selective radio channel, we investigate an erasure decoded π/4 QDPSK MCM (ED-MCM) by employing simple Hamming (block) code. We propose the threshold-free criteria, i.e. relative minimum receive power test (RMRPT) and relative maximum decision error test (RMDE...
