In contrast to previously proposed turbo equalisers, where typically non-iterative channel decoders were used, this paper compares the performance of partial-response GMSK turbo equalisers using two different encoders, namely block BCH turbo codes and convolutional codes. The BER performance is assessed over non-dispersive Gaussian channels, and dispersive Rayleigh fading channels.
Conventional differential systems are known to have poor performance when used in a Rice- or Rayleigh-fading channel. These systems are incapable of working properly due to time changing channel parameters. This diffi...

Conventional differential systems are known to have poor performance when used in a Rice- or Rayleigh-fading channel. These systems are incapable of working properly due to time changing channel parameters. This difficulty is overcome by using multiple symbol differential detection (MSDD). This paper deals with one simplification of these systems.

We propose a new scheme for multiple antenna transmission in the context of spread spectrum signaling. The new scheme consists of using shifted Gold sequences to modulate independent information on the multiple antennas. We show that this new scheme greatly improves the throughput over currently known multiple antenna methods. We also find the optimal power allocation strategy among multiple transmit antennas for a fixed feedback rate.

The traditional waveform coding techniques for digital communication systems convert the original analog input signal into a digital bit stream using uniform sampling in the time domain, i.e. PCM, DM, ADPCM. We propose the time code modulation (TCM) technique as an alternative coding scheme, where information is extracted from the signal, only at the time instants when necessary. This results in a variable sampling rate, where its mean value is significantly less than the Nyquist rate. In addition we suggest a general theoretical model for TCM and we present simulation results for various implementations of TCM coders and decoders. A theoretical estimation of SNR vs. sampling rate performance is also presented.

The novel noncoherent coded modulation (NCM) scheme introduced by Raphaeli (see IEEE Trans. Commun., vol.44, no.2, p.172-83, 1996) is extended for non-constant energy symbols. Theoretical performance analysis, based on deriving the pairwise error distribution over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel applying the independent overlapped observations noncoherent maximum likelihood sequence estimation (IO-NMLSE) metric is presented. Tight Gaussian approximation together with upper and lower bounds and a method for numerically evaluate them are presented. The NCM scheme has a performance that approaches that of a coherent detection for increasing complexity. Sub-optimal decoding algorithms introduced by Raphaeli (see IEEE Trans. Commun., vol.44, no.3, p.312-23, 1996), provide good tradeoff between maximizing performance and minimizing system complexity.

In this article, a turbo-equalizer for TCM is investigated. The receiver is composed of a symbol detector or an equalizer realizing soft-output equalization, a deinterleaver, a soft-input soft-output channel decoder based on the a posteriori probability (APP) algorithm. A soft information provided by the decoder is then available and is re-used in the equalization step as is done in the classical scheme of turbo-equalization. The case of a APP algorithm used as an equalizer is investigated. A specific computation, iterating probabilities rather than extrinsic information, allows the application of turbo equalization to TCM. Simulations of this iterative receiver are done.

A new spectral shaping technique Convolutional Spectral Shaping (CSS), is introduced. In CSS, equivalence classes of possible sign bit sequences are represented by a coset of a convolutional code and a search through the trellis of the code is used to pick a sequence from the selected coset to approximate a target spectral shape for transmission. Simulation results are included to illustrate the performance of CSS. A version of CSS has recently been adopted by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) in the Pulse Code modulation (PCM) modem standard V.90.

Accurate formulas and also close, strict upper and lower bounds of error probabilities in a symbol and a bit for classical M-ary two-dimensional signals with PSK, QASK and a manipulation Gray code for any required M are obtained. In order to obtain bounds the sequence of new strict and close inequalities for the Owen function, coming into many accurate formulas of error probability, was defined.

This paper presents a rate 16/17 "punctured" time varying maximum transition run (PMTR) block code. It is not possible to achieve a rate 16/17 or higher TMTR block code which completely suppresses the minimum distance error event. However, it is in general, possible to make a tradeoff between obtaining higher code rates and coding gain by puncturing; the space of codewords and limiting the extent to which the minimum distance error event is suppressed. As an example, we obtain a rate 16/17 block code where the minimum distance error event is supported in only 6 out of the 17 possible codeword locations. An implementation of the code is presented and simulation results examining the performance benefits under different conditions are also presented.
