Q2. What is the effect of the IR-PLDC scheme?
In addition, note that when the authors have ρ > 2 dB, the proposed scheme starts to gradually deviate from the MIMO channel’s capacity, owing to the lack of high-rate IR-PLDC components.
Q3. How much weighting factor search was sufficient to explore the benefits of irregularity in the proposed system?
In their investigations, the authors found that a weighting factor search step-size of 0.05 applied across the entire space was sufficient to explore the benefits of irregularity in the proposed system.
Q4. What is the fading phase of the channel?
The channel’s envelope and phase are assumed to be constant during T symbol periods, but they are faded independently from one space-time matrix to the next.
Q5. What is the rate of a PLDC(MNTQ) scheme?
Since unity-rate precoders are employed, a PLDC(MNTQ) scheme’s rate is the same as that of an LDC(MNTQ) scheme, which is defined as RLDC = Q/T (sym/slot).
Q6. What is the IRCC encoder’s weighting coefficient vector?
Note that the IRCC encoder’s weighting coefficient vector γ quantifies the specific fraction of input bits encoded by each component at the transmitter side, whereas γ̄ determines the fraction of the log-likelihood ratios (LLRs) fed into each individual decoder at the IRCC’s decoder, and the components of γ and γ̄ are related byγi = γ̄i ×
Q7. What is the design criterion when using an IR-PLDC as the inner?
their design criterion when employing an IR-PLDC as the inner code is to maximize the achievable rate C(ρ) of (11), while maintaining an open EXIT tunnel.
Q8. What is the shape of the dashed–dotted curves?
The dashed– dotted curves represent the inner EXIT curves of the first six PLDC component codes in Table I. Observe that the area under the inner component EXIT curves is increased when the rate is decreased, which corresponds to the different component PLDCs having different maximum achievable rates.
Q9. Why is the number of inner iterations in Table The authoroptimized?
The number of “inner” iterations between the MMSE detector and the precoder required for each PLDC component in Table The authoris also optimized for the sake of achieving the maximum capacity.
Q10. How much SNR is the irregular outer scheme capable of operating?
In summary, observe in Fig. 5 that the irregular outer schemes facilitate operation about 0.9 dB from the MIMO channel’s capacity for SNRs either −3 dB < ρ < 6 dB or −10 dB < ρ < −6 dB.
Q11. What is the property of the Gray labeling?
When a single symbol is transmitted, the resultant EXIT curve is a horizontal line, which is a property of the Gray labeling employed [16].
Q12. What is the EXIT function of the outer IRCC scheme?
the EXIT function of the outer IRCC scheme becomesΓout = Pout∑ i=1 γ̄iΓ̄i(Iin) (9)where Γ̄i denotes the EXIT function of the ith IRCC component, and it is independent of the operating SNR ρ.
Q13. What is the EXIT function of the proposed inner IR-PLDC scheme?
More explicitly, the EXIT function of the proposed inner IR-PLDC scheme is given byΓin = Pin∑ i=1 λiΓi(Iin, ρ) (8)where Γi denotes the EXIT function of the ith PLDC component.
Q14. What is the equivalent system matrix of received signals?
V̄ (3)where Ȳ ∈ ζNT×1 denotes the equivalent matrix of complexvalued received signals, and V̄ ∈ ζNT×1 represents the corresponding complex-valued noise matrix.
Q15. How much BER is achievable for a PLDC?
More explicitly, observe in Fig. 5 that when the high-rate PLDC(2224) scheme was employed, a vanishing BER was achievable for SNRs in excess of ρ = −3 dB.
Q16. How many inner iterations can be used to achieve the DCMC capacity?
The authors observe that for the component PLDCs in Table I, where the authors have Q > 1, employing j = 1 inner iteration will enable the system to attain 99% of the DCMC capacity.
