Abstract
A system proposal for DAB is investigated. The kernel is orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with 4-DPSK (differential phase shift keying) modulation, rectangular pulse-shaping, and a guard interval to reject multipath distortions. Emphasis is on the use of source-adapted channel coding with rate-compatible punctured convolutional (RCPC) codes. Based on analytical and simulated BER (bit error rate) curves for several propagation conditions and on preliminary source significance information (SSI), a static code design with unequal error protection (UEP) is presented that also takes auxiliary data services into account. The gain due to UEP is on the order of 8dB in signal power or 25% in bandwidth. >

BER sensitivity of OFDM systems to carrier frequency offset and Wiener phase noise

TL;DR: In this contribution the transmission of M-PSK and M-QAM modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signals over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel is considered and the degradation of the bit error rate is evaluated.

Transmission techniques for digital terrestrial TV broadcasting

TL;DR: The authors discuss the potential of OFDM signaling, with its limitations and inherent problems, as well as another potential technique that has so far been overlooked: single-carrier transmission with frequency- domain equalization, and introduces coded-OFDM (COFDM), which makes use of channel coding and frequency-domain interleaving.

Rate-compatible punctured convolutional codes (RCPC codes) and their applications

TL;DR: In this article, the concept of punctured convolutional codes is extended by punctuating a low-rate 1/N code periodically with period P to obtain a family of codes with rate P/(P+l), where l can be varied between 1 and (N-1)P. This allows transmission of incremental redundancy in ARQ/FEC (automatic repeat request/forward error correction) schemes and continuous rate variation to change from low to high error protection within a data frame.
