Effect of outer block interleaving in turbo codes performance over Rayleigh fading channels for 3GPP
نویسندگان
چکیده
Outer block interleaving improves the performance of turbo codes in correlated Rayleigh fading channels. The longer the outer interleaver, the better is the performance, with the penalty of more delay. Power could be saved by choosing the optimum interleaver for different operating environments. In this paper the four possible outer block interleaver lengths specified for 3GPP are examined for correlated Rayleigh fading channels with different normalized fade rates fdTS. SOVA and log-MAP algorithms are used in the turbo decoder, with a turbo interleaver length of 5114 bits. Our results show that choosing a TTI of 40 msec instead of 80 msec does not make a very large difference in performance, while the highest performance gain occurs for a TTI of 20 msec. We discuss the selection of the optimum interleaver length for the same bit-rate, but different scenarios.

Reconfigurable outer block interleaving over correlated Rayleigh fading for 3GPP turbo coding
Turbo coding in correlated Rayleigh fading channels is improved by outer block interleaving, but with added complexity and delay. Choosing the wrong number of columns can increase the BER, so a reconfigurable block interleaver with column number optimised for different operating environments is useful. Simulation results are presented for the four block interleaver configurations specified for ...

Fading in wireless environments is a major obstacle to reliable communications. In order to mitigate the e ects of fading, channel coding is often employed. In this thesis, the performance and design of the channel coding technique, turbo codes, [1] is examined over Rayleigh fading channels. The thesis considers coherent BPSK signaling over both time-correlated and fully-interleaved Rayleigh, s...

The performance and design of turbo codes using coherent BPSK signaling on the Rayleigh fading channel is considered. In low signal-to-noise regions, performance analysis uses simulations of typical turbo coding systems. For higher signalto-noise regions beyond simulation capabilities, an average upper bound is used in which the average is over all possible interleaving schemes. Fully interleav...

We study the use of turbo-coded modulation for wireless communication systems with multiple transmit and receive antennas over block Rayleigh fading channels. We describe an effective way of applying turbo-coded modulation as an alternative to the current space–time codes with appropriate interleaving. We study the performance with the standard iterative turbo decoding algorithm, as well as the...
