It is shown that convolutional codes with good Hamming-distance property can provide both high diversity order and large free Euclidean distance for BICM-ID, which provides a simple mechanism for variable-rate transmission.
Abstract
This paper considers bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) for bandwidth-efficient transmission using software radios. A simple iterative decoding (ID) method with hard-decision feedback is suggested to achieve better performance. The paper shows that convolutional codes with good Hamming-distance property can provide both high diversity order and large free Euclidean distance for BICM-ID. The method offers a common framework for coded modulation over channels with a variety of fading statistics. In addition, BICM-ID allows an efficient combination of punctured convolutional codes and multiphase/level modulation, and therefore provides a simple mechanism for variable-rate transmission.

Optimised labeling maps for bit-interleaved transmission with turbo demodulation

TL;DR: The effect of signal labeling is approached through the error rate analysis of maximum likelihood demodulation/decoding on one hand, and the statistical analysis of de-mapped bit metrics at the first demodulations iteration, on the other hand.

Design and Analysis of Delayed Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation With LDPC Codes

TL;DR: This paper investigates the design and performance of delayed bit-interleaved coded modulation (DBICM) with low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes and proposes a constrained progressive edge growth like algorithm to jointly construct LDPC codes and bit-Interleavers for DBICM, taking distinctive bit-channel’s capacity into account.

Apparatus for providing a combined digital signal

TL;DR: In this paper, a bit adder and a combiner are configured to add at least one filling bit to a block of the first digital input signal to obtain an adapted first-digital input signal, so that the block length of the second-digital-input signal is equal to the length of a first digital-output signal.

Channel coding with multilevel/phase signals

TL;DR: A coding technique is described which improves error performance of synchronous data links without sacrificing data rate or requiring more bandwidth by channel coding with expanded sets of multilevel/phase signals in a manner which increases free Euclidean distance.
