In this paper, we evaluate the performance of single- and multi-antenna multi-carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) downlink (base station to mobile terminal) systems in single- and multi-cell environments. We first propose a minimum mean square error (MMSE) filter with a Gaussian approximation for a single input single output (SISO) MC-CDMA downlink system. Then, we apply it to a SIMO (single input multiple output) system with a conventional turbo coding. Furthermore, we compare the performance of SISO (1 x 1) and SIMO (1 x 2) MC-CDMA systems with that of a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) (2 x 2) system employing space-time turbo coded modulation (STruCM) in a multi-cell environment with 7 cells by computer simulation. Based on the computer simulation results, it is found that the considered MIMO system can achieve twofold capacity with the same transmission power in the multi-cell environment.

The effects of the channel reliability factor on the performance of turbo decoders that use a maximum a posteriori probability algorithm are investigated for wireless communication fading channels, such as Bluetooth systems. The channel reliability factor is related to the channel signal-to-noise ratio. For various values of the channel reliability factor, the obtained performance curves of the maximum a posteriori probability algorithm are given for the case of DMx Bluetooth data packets. When the channel reliability factor increases, the bit-error-rate performance of the DMx Bluetooth data packets also increases over fading channels.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and multicarrier code division multiple access (MCCDMA) systems are comparatively evaluated for power line communications (PLC) in a frequency-selective fading environment with additive coloured Gaussian noise which is used to model the actual in-home power line channel. OFDM serves as a benchmark in order to measure the performance of various MC-CDMA systems, since multicarrier modulation systems are considered the best candidate for this kind of channel. Both single-user and multi-user cases are taken into account, making use of the appropriate combiner schemes to take full advantage of each case. System efficiency is enhanced by the application of different coding techniques, a fact which shows that powerful coding can make the difference under such a hostile medium. The impact of block interleaving is investigated, while the simulation examines how different modulation schemes fair under the imposed channel conditions as well. The performance of the system is assessed by the commonly used bit error rate vs signal-to-noise ratio diagrams and there is also a comparison regarding throughput efficiency among all the tested systems. As stated in Section 4, a promising PLC application is attained. Copyright (C) 2004 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.

turbo decoding with an embedded autoregressive (AR) channel model is studied in an actual perpendicular magnetic recording channel. Performance of the a posteriori probability (APP) decoder is improved by applying an, AR channel model in order to estimate the decoder input sequence. The bit-error-rate (BER) performance,is obtained by read/write experiments using a spin stand with a perpendicular medium and an single-pole-type/giant magnetoresistive (SPT/GMR) head. The results show that our turbo coding and iterative decoding system using an AR channel model improves the BER performance.

This paper presents a channel estimation and tracking method for correlated block-fading channels in massive MIMO wireless cellular systems. In order to conserve resources, the proposed algorithm requires the uplink pilot signal only once, at the start of communication. By utilizing the temporal correlation between consecutive Resource Blocks (RBs) and the error correction capability of turbo codes, the channel matrix in subsequent RBs is estimated at the Base Station (BS) itself using the uplink data of current the RB and the estimated channel matrix of previous the RB. Compared to existing blind estimation methods, the proposed method places fewer limitations on the system settings such as the number of BS antennas, the number of users, and the number of coherent channel usage compared to existing blind estimation methods. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm provides better performance for a moderate RB size, a high-order of QAM scheme, and a smaller ratio of the number of BS antennas and mobile terminals (N/K). For a reasonably small N/K (order of 10), the proposed scheme achieves a lower symbol error probability than the conventional pilot-based estimation approach.

In this paper, a scalable and real-time decision-based carrier tracking for software defined radio (SDR) for M-ary QAM modulation has been proposed and tested in real-time using the universal software radio peripheral (USRP)-2922. The proposed system provides real-time decision-based carrier tracking for improved efficiency and performance. The real-time transfer of data has been done using the USRP-2922 hardware using the M-ary QAM modulation scheme for data transmission. The novelty of the proposed system is that one can transfer random data (binary bits), text or an image which can be encoded using the desired forward error correction codes (FEC) namely the convolution coding/Viterbi soft decision decoding and the turbo coding/decoding. The proposed novel SDR transceiver system with real-time decision-based carrier tracking shows an improved performance for different parameters such as the bit error rate (BER) and signal to noise ratio (Eb/No).

Multilevel Differential Amplitude and Phase-Shift Keying (DAPSK) schemes do not require any channel estimation, which results in low complexity. In this treatise we derive the soft-output probability formulas required for a soft-decision based demodulation of high-order DAPSK, in order to facilitate iterative detection by exchanging extrinsic information with an outer turbo Code (TC). Furthermore, when the TC block size is increased, the system operates closer to the channel capacity. Compared to the identical-throughput TC assisted 64-ary Differential Phase-Shift Keying (64-DPSK) scheme, the 4-ring based TC assisted 64-ary DAPSK arrangement has a power-efficiency improvement of 2.3 dB at a bit error rate (BER) of 10(-5). Furthermore, when the TC block size is increased, the system operates closer to the channel capacity. More specifically, when using a TC block length of 400 modulated symbols, the 64 DAPSK (4, 16) scheme is 7.56 dB away from its capacity curve, while it had a reduced gap as low as 2.25 dB, when using a longer TC block length of 40 000 modulated symbols. Finally, as a novel application example, the soft-decision M-DAPSK scheme was incorporated into an Amplify-and-Forward (AF) based cooperative communication system, which attains another 4.5 dB SNR improvement for a TC block length of 40 000 modulated symbols.

New space-time turbo trellis codes (ST turbo TCs) with 4-phase-shift keying (PSK) and 8-PSK for two, three, and four transmit antennas in slow and fast fading channels are proposed in this paper. The component codes of the space-time turbo schemes are constructed by choosing the feedforward coefficients to maximize the minimum squared Euclidean distance and the feedback coefficients to minimize the iterative decoding threshold. The performance of the proposed ST turbo TCs with various memory orders, transmit antennas, and interleaver structures is evaluated by simulation. It is shown that the new codes achieve better performance than previously designed codes. The impact of antenna correlation and imperfect channel estimation on the code performance is also discussed.

In this paper, full-rate and complex orthogonal space-time block code (STBC) schemes for multiple antennas are proposed, and turbo code is employed as channel coding to improve the proposed STBC schemes performance further. Compared with full-diversity multiple antennas STBC schemes, the proposed schemes can implement full data rate, partial diversity and a smaller complexity. On the condition of the same system throughput and concatenation of turbo code, the proposed schemes have lower bit error rate (BER) than those low-rate and full-diversity code schemes.

In recent years, for transmission of 2D colored images over the fading channels, a new scheme has been denoted as "adaptive Wiener-turbo systems with JPEG & bit plane compressions" (AW-TSwJBC). In this paper, the performance of AW-TSwJBC is introduced over Rician and Rayleigh fading channels. We benefited from the neighborhood relation of pixels for each color plane by using a new iterative block, the "adaptive Wiener-turbo" scheme, which employs a turbo decoder, JPEG encoder/decoders, and adaptive Wiener filtering. In our approach, we could also alter compression ratios due to the importance of the image to be transferred. Based on the simulation results obtained in this study, AW-TSwJBC can recover high quality JPEG and bit plane compression images from the corresponding corrupted JPEG images at high SNR values for Rician (K = 10 dB) and Rayleigh channels. This shows the feasibility of the AW-TSwJBC approach.
