The impact of the code rate and constraint length on the qualitative performance of optical interleave division multiple access (OIDMA) system is analyzed. The various topologies of convolution encoder design have implemented by considering various shift registers as well as several Ex-OR gates to achieve the performance. Further, the bit error rate (BER) calculated for a different possible combination of random inter-leaver. The BER increases with the number of users, whereas it decreases with the code rate and constraint length.

The Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv (BCJR) algorithm is a well-known maximum a posteriori probability decoding algorithm which has been proposed earlier for point to point communication applications, employing block codes or convolutional codes and turbo codes. This study describes an application of the BCJR algorithm for decoding the output of a multiple-access channel called the noisy three-user binary adder channel, in the presence of additive white Gaussian noise. The computer simulation results are presented for the overall coding performance in terms of bit error rate against signal-to-noise ratio.

The Viterbi algorithm is a maximum likelihood means for decodingconvolutional codes and has thus played an important role in applications ranging from satellite communications to cellular telephony, In the past, Viterbi decoders have usually been implemented using digital circuits. The speed of these digital decoders is directly related to the amount of parallelism in the design. As the constraint length of the code increases, parallelism becomes problematic due to the complexity of the decoder. In this paper an artificial neural network (ANN) Viterbi decoder is presented. The ANN decoder is significantly faster than comparable digital-only designs due to its fully parallel architecture. The fully parallel structure is obtained by implementing most of the Viterbi algorithm using analog neurons as opposed to digital circuits. Several modifications to the ANN decoder are considered, including an analog/digital hybrid design that results in an extremely fast and efficient decoder. The ANN decoder requires one-sixth the number of transistors required by the digital decoder. The connection weights of the ANN decoder are either +1 or -1, so weight considerations in the implementation are eliminated. This, together with the design's modularity and local connectivity, makes the ANN Viterbi decoder a natural fit for VLSI implementation. Simulation results are provided to show that the performance of the ANN decoder matches that of an ideal Viterbi decoder.

A prototype of a Digital Television Terrestrial Broadcasting System has been implemented according to the European DVB-T standard. The first step in the construction of this prototype involved parameter optimization via simulation. This paper presents the optimization process of the system parameters and the final achieved BER performance. Important design aspects such as interleaving, convolutional puncturing codes, Viterbi decoding, pilot-based channel correction and optimal pilot power are considered. The DVB-T standard offers some suggested values of the C/N ratio needed to achieve the desired BER requirements in the receiver. However, they have been obtained assuming ideal channel correction and synchronization. Simulation results are provided here in non-ideal conditions.

The problem of avoiding infinite error propagation in noncatastrophic convolutional codes when using a truncated Viterbi decoder is considered. A truncation length tau is defined in terms of walks in the state diagram. The truncation length guarantees that, in the presence of a sufficiently long guard space, a truncated Viterbi decoder will always recover from any error event. This value of tau is the theoretically smallest possible truncation length.

In this letter, the loss due to imperfect channel estimation is derived for pilot symbol assisted binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) on fading channels with diversity, The presented approach, which holds for both narrow-band and spread spectrum communication, further provides an analytical optimization of pilot symbol spacing. The loss due to channel estimation is demonstrated to be low if the maximum Doppler frequency is significantly less than the bit rate.

详细信息
The complexity of the algorithm is shown to be asymptotically equal to that of the Viterbi algorithm and is very close for practical noisy channels. The latter is shown by means of computer simulation. The algorithm can be applied directly in an environment where soft-decision decoding is required or preferred. However, depending on the environment, some simplifications may be possible and/or necessary, resulting in suboptimal algorithms. Codes suitable for use with the algorithm should have short total memory length.

In this paper, we analyse the performance of rate-compatible punctured convolutional (RCPC) codes for wireless optical communications systems. For these environments, a novel hybrid RCPC coding scheme with a modified puncturing matrix is proposed based on the insertion of variable silence periods. This transmission technique achieves better bit-error rate results than conventional RCPC and convolutional coding schemes, in agreement to the obtained increase in the peak-to-average optical power ratio.

An unequal channel protection technique for JPEG2000 encoded images is proposed The proposed technique takes advantage of the hierarchical organization of the JPEG2000 bit-stream and protects only the most important part of the compressed bit-stream, by means of a rate compatible punctured convolutional code. Both single-quality-layer and multiple-quality-layer compressions are considered The performance of this technique is evaluated under various noisy channel conditions. Simulation results show that the probability of correct decoding the received information and the quality of the reconstructed image are improved by the proposed technique.
