Improved LDPC-based short-range frequency-hopping wireless communication system

In short-range wireless communication system(SWCS),the complex scenarios make its transmission face the diverse interference,and lower hardware resource leads to its limited anti-interference capability.To achieve the reliable transmission,a frequency-hopping-based SWCS (FH-SWCS)with improved LDPC (I-LDPC) code was constructed.In FH-SWCS,a low-complexity check-sum updating(LCU)algorithm was proposed to reduce the amount of computation.LCU-based multi-threshold bit flipping (LCU-MTBF) algorithm was given to increase the reliability of bit-flipping, improving decoding performance and reduce the complexity of decoding.The simulation results demonstrate that LCU is suitable for multiple hard decisions decoding algorithm,and it can reduce the computational complexity of original decoding algorithm without affecting its performance.When BER is 10^?5,and iterations number is 5,0.15dB performance gain can be achieved,and the number of additions algorithm can be reduced about 40% in LCU-MTBF.In FH-SWCS with I-LDPC,when BER is 10^?4,and SNR is 15dB,the performance gain about 7dB can be achieved to improve the anti-interference of the system effectively.     

Adaptive differential detection using linear prediction for M-aryDPSK

This paper proposes a novel adaptive differential detection scheme (adaptive DD), which can significantly reduce the irreducible bit-error rate (BER) of M-ary DPSK due to Doppler spread by the adaptive linear prediction of the reference signal. The predictor coefficient is adapted to changing channel conditions by using the recursive least-square (RLS) algorithm. A phase sequence estimation based on the M-state Viterbi algorithm (VA) and another based on the decision feedback algorithm (DFA) are presented. A theoretical BER analysis is presented for adaptive DD-DFA. BER performances of 2 and 4DPSK in Rayleigh fading channels are evaluated by computer simulations. When the RLS forgetting factor of β=1 is used, simulation results show that the irreducible BER of 4DPSK can be reduced to 7.2×10^-5 (3.9×10 ^-4) for VA (DFA) while conventional DD offers 3.9×10 ^-3 when f_DT_b (maximum Doppler frequency times bit duration)=0.01 and average E_b/N₀ (signal energy per bit-to-additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) power spectrum density ratio)=60 dB, where most errors are produced by Doppler spread. Adaptive DD is also effective in AWGN channels-simulations show that for the case of 4DPSK, a performance gain of 1.2 (0.7) dB is achieved over conventional DD for VA (DFA) at BER=10^-3     

Decision feedback equalisation of coded I-Q QPSK in mobile radioenvironments

The bit error rate (BER) performance of equalised I-Q quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) is evaluated for wideband cellular systems. Decision feedback equalisation with the square-root Kalman updating algorithm is employed for I-Q coded systems. A gain of about 6 dB is achieved in favour of the I-Q scheme compared with the conventional Gray-mapped QPSK at a BER of 10^-3     

Impact of laser phase noise on the performance of a {3×3}phase and polarization diversity optical homodyne DPSK receiver

An analysis of the impact of laser phase noise on the performance of a {3×3} phase- and polarization-diversity differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) receiver is done for the phase and shot-noise limited case. The results show that, for zero laser linewidths, the maximal signal power penalty of the {3×3} phase- and polarization-diversity DPSK receiver with respect to the conventional heterodyne DPSK receiver is approximately 0.7 dB for P_e =10^-9. For nonzero laser linewidths, it appears that, depending on the laser linewidth, for large signal-to-noise ratios the performance of the analyzed {3×3} phase- and polarization-diversity DPSK receiver is close to that of the ideal conventional heterodyne DPSK receiver. For a rectangular intermediate-frequency filter, the maximum allowable normalized laser linewidth (Δυ×T) for the (3×3) phase and polarization diversity DPSK receiver is found to be approximately 0.46% for a power penalty of 1 dB     

Impact of local oscillator intensity noise and the threshold levelon the performance of a {2×2} and {3×3} phase-diversity ASKreceiver

The impact of local oscillator intensity noise and the threshold level on the performance of the {2×2} and the {3×3} phase-diversity amplitude-shift keying (ASK) receiver has been investigated for the first time for non-Gaussian statistics. Exact equations are derived for the bit-error-rate (BER), taking into account the non-Gaussian statistics and the statistical dependency of the relative intensity noise (RIN) in the receiver branches. The results differ substantially from the case in which a priori Gaussian statistics were assumed. The sensitivity penalty of the receivers is calculated with respect to the performance of an ideal heterodyne ASK receiver for a BER of 10^-9. It is shown that for a minimum sensitivity penalty the threshold level should be chosen in relation to the local oscillator power and the intensity noise level     

基于线性化因子更新的频域迭代判决反馈均衡

迭代块判决反馈均衡(Iterative Block Decision Feedback Equalization,IBDFE)是单载波频域均衡中一种行之有效的非线性均衡算法,但算法计算复杂度随迭代次数增加而增大。本文针对传统IBDFE算法的不足提出一种基于线性因子更新的频域迭代判决反馈均衡算法,利用了线性因子更新来降低均衡器复杂度,并引入修正因子计算反馈滤波器系数以避免性能损失。仿真结果表明,所提出算法性能与传统IBDFE算法相比复杂度降低且在误比特率为10-5时有0.12 dB的性能增益,与已有的低复杂度算法(Low-Complexity IBDFE,LC-IBDFE)相比有0.1 dB的性能增益。      

Differentially detected GMSK signals in CCI channels for mobilecellular telecommunication systems

The performance of conventional and decision feedback differential detection receivers for Gaussian minimum-shift keying (GMSK) signals transmitted in the presence of cochannel interference (CCI) and additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is evaluated. For the interference, the authors adopt a model which includes N statistically independent static as well as faded CCI. Various bit-error-rate (BER) performance evaluation results have indicated that the receiver under investigation performs better as compared to other more conventional receiver structures. Especially significant BER improvements are obtained for the static CCI channel. For example, it is shown that with a carrier-to-interference ratio of 14 dB, the performance of a 2-b decision feedback differential receiver outperforms a conventional 2-b differential detector by more than 14 dB (at a BER 10^-3). For the faded CCI, the improvement is less: mainly they result in error-floor reductions of about half an order of magnitude. By comparing the performance of static and faded CCI, it was also found that for a given C/I, the performance of the former would depend on the number of interferers, whereas this is not the case for the latter     

Proposal for Beyond 100-Gb/s Optical Transmission Based on Bit-Interleaved LDPC-Coded Modulation

An iterative bandwidth-efficient coded modulation scheme based on bit-interleaving low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, and M-ary differential phase-shift keying is proposed. A bit-interleaved LDPC-coded scheme, carrying 3 bits/symbol, provides the coding gain of 8.3 dB at a bit-error rate (BER) of 10^-7. The expected coding gain at BER of 10^-12 is 12.8 dB. Possible applications include 100G Ethernet, and high-speed (>100 Gb/s) long-haul transmission     

Experiment on coherent adaptive antenna array for wideband DS-CDMAmobile radio

A four-element pilot symbol-assisted coherent adaptive antenna array diversity receiver for 4.096 Mchip/s wideband direct sequence code division multiple access mobile radio is implemented and its performance in a multipath fading environment is evaluated by a laboratory experiment using hardware fading simulators. The receiver comprises an adaptive antenna array using the normalised least mean square algorithm and Rake combiner. It is demonstrated that, for the three-user case, the required average signal-to-interference ratio obtaining average BER of 10^-3 can be reduced by ~8 dB compared to four-branch antenna diversity     

Crosstalk degradation caused by optical amplification in amultichannel FSK heterodyne system

The crosstalk degradation caused by an optical amplifier in a four-channel FSK (frequency-shift-keyed) heterodyne communication system is measured. A bit error rate (BER) floor of 3×10^-4 is observed when the channels are spaced by 200 MHz, FSK modulation at 45 Mb/s, and when the optical input signal is large enough such that the gain is compressed by 2 dB relative to its small-signal value. The receiver is substantially improved by reducing the optical power amplifier input. However, the sensitivity increases only to a maximum value beyond which it degrades as the optical power of the demodulated channel becomes small relative to the noise of the optical amplifier. The combined effect of the crosstalk and the amplifier noise yields an optimum sensitivity of 250 photons/b for BER=10^-9. This result is 5 dB poorer than the sensitivity obtained in the absence of an optical amplifier     

Design of equalized maximum-likelihood receiver

A receiver structure referred to as equalized maximum likelihood (EML) is proposed to reduce the complexity of the maximum-likelihood sequence detector (MLSD). Performance of EML is evaluated through the bit-error rate (BER) measurement for a magnetic recording channel. EML exhibits 1-dB gain over the conventional partial response maximum likelihood (PRML) for 10^-5 BER     

Iterative Viterbi decoding, trellis shaping, and multilevelstructure for high-rate parity-concatenated TCM

We define and apply a new algorithm called the iterative Viterbi decoding algorithm (IVA) to decode a high-rate parity-concatenated TCM system in which a trellis code is used as the inner code and a simple parity-check code is used as the outer code. With trellis shaping, the IVA can achieve a performance 1.25 dB away from the Shannon limit at a BER of 3×10^-5 with low complexity. By augmenting the system with a binary BCH code, the error floor can be reduced to 10^-9 with very little additional cost     

DSTBC Impulse Radios with Autocorrelation Receiver in ISI-Free UMD Channels

For transmitted-reference impulse radio, it has been experimentally shown that multiple transmit antennas can provide an energy boost in the received signal. Here, we propose a 2-transmit and Q-receive differential space-time block coded impulse radio with autocorrelation receiver. A mathematical model for predicting the system bit-error-rate (BER) performance is derived for intersymbol interference-free transmission over an ultra-wideband channel, and validated with computer simulated results. From the results, it is observed that in migrating from 1-transmit to 2-transmit antennas, a signal-to-noise ratio gain of 3 dB, 2 dB and 1 dB at BER = 10^-5 can be achieved, respectively, for the case of 1-, 2- and 4-receive antennas.     

BER evaluation for phase and polarization diversity opticalhomodyne receivers using noncoherent ASK and DPSK demodulation

An analysis of the performance of phase diversity receivers using amplitude-shift keying (ASK) and differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) is presented. Both {2×2} and {3×3} multiport receivers are investigated. Asymptotic methods are used to estimate the bit error rate (BER) and signal-to-noise power ratio (SNR) dependence for each type of the receiver. The analysis favors the squarers as the demodulators for ASK whose performance approaches that of the ideal heterodyne detector in the limit of large SNR. A modification of the ASK ({3×3}) receiver which cancels the local oscillator intensity noise is proposed. Receivers which comprise polarization and phase diversity techniques are also investigated for both ASK and DPSK. Their performance is independent of the polarization state of the received signal, and the value of SNR required to obtain the BER of 10^-9 is only a few tenths of a decibel greater than that needed by the phase diversity receivers     

Sensitivity degradation of an optical {2×2} and a {3×3}phase diversity ASK receiver due to gain imbalance and nonideal phaserelations of the optical hybrid

The sensitivity penalty due to phase and gain imbalance for a {2×2} and a {3×3} optical homodyne phase diversity amplitude-shift keying (ASK) receiver is investigated for the shot-noise-limited case. It is shown that both types of imbalance lead to a time varying character of the bit error rate (BER) types of imbalance and the phase mismatch. The calculation of the BER is performed as a function of the threshold value. It is shown that for an optimized threshold value, the phase diversity ASK receivers can tolerate rather large amounts of gain imbalance, namely approximately ±10%, and a phase mismatch of approximately ±10° for the {2×2} receiver and approximately ≠15° for the {3×3} receiver without an excessive sensitivity degradation (<2 dB)     

1.3-$mu$m Amplifier-Free All-Optical 2R Regenerator Using Two-Mode Injection-Locked Distributed Feedback Laser Diode

This study presents a novel and cost-effective 1.3-mum all-optical 2R regenerator based on a two-mode injection-locked distributed feedback laser diode. The proposed 2R regenerator, with 14.13-dB small signal gain, has achieved an amplifier-free 10-Gb/s straight line transmission over 60 km while keeping the power penalty less than 0.84 dB at bit-error rate (BER) =10^-9. In addition, properties like BER degradation, output extinction ratio, gain, and data-rate transparency are also experimentally investigated     

Estimated performance of 2.488 Gb/s CPFSK optical non-repeateredtransmission system employing high-output power EDFA boosters

The configuration of a practical nonrepeatered coherent optical transmission system and its performance are reported. The practicability of combining continuous-phase frequency-shift keying (CPFSK) with erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) boosters is verified by laboratory and field experiments. A system gain of 60.8 dB is achieved at a BER at 10^-11; the EDFA's optical output power is +18 dBm and the receiver sensitivity is -42.8 dBm. The stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) effect is examined to estimate the dependence of error rate characteristics on the bit sequence length. No power penalty is observed for a pseudorandom bit sequence (PRBS) of more than 2⁵-1 or STM-16 patterns containing a 30-byte block of consecutive identical digits. The power penalty of 1.3 dB caused by the 310-km non-dispersion-shifted transmission fiber is successfully compensated by installing a chromatic dispersion compensator in each orthogonal polarization branch. During a four month field experiment, error-free operation was observed over a 30 day period, and the long-term error rate is under 6×10^-16     

An achievable rate region for the multiple-access channel with feedback

An achievable rate regionR_{1} leq I(X_{1};Y|X_{2},U), R_{2} leq I(X_{2}; Y|X_{1},U), R_{1}+R_{2} leq I(X_{1}, X_{2};Y), wherep(u,x_{l},x_{2},y)= p(u)p(x_{l}|u)p(x_{2}|u)p(y|x_{l},x_{2}), is established for the multiple-access channel with feedback. Time sharing of these achievable rates yields the rate region of this paper. This region generally exceeds the achievable rate region without feedback and exceeds the rate point found by Gaarder and Wolf for the binary erasure multiple-access channel with feedback. The presence of feedback allows the independent transmitters to understand each other's intended transmissions before the receiver has sufficient information to achieve the desired decoding. This allows the transmitters to cooperate in the transmission of information that resolves the residual uncertainty of the receiver. At the same time, independent information from the transmitters is superimposed on the cooperative correction information. The proof involves list codes and block Markov encoding.     

A Single-Ended Fully Integrated SiGe 77/79 GHz Receiver for Automotive Radar

A single-ended 77/79 GHz monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) receiver has been developed in SiGe HBT technology for frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) automotive radars. The single-ended receiver chip consists of the first reported SiGe 77/79 GHz single-ended cascode low noise amplifier (LNA), the improved single-ended RF double-balanced down-conversion 77/79 GHz micromixer, and the modified differential Colpitts 77/79 GHz voltage controlled oscillator (VCO). The LNA presents 20/21.7 dB gain and mixer has 13.4/7 dB gain at 77/79 GHz, and the VCO oscillates from 79 to 82 GHz before it is tuned by cutting the transmission line ladder, and it centres around 77 GHz with a tuning range of 3.8 GHz for the whole ambient temperature variation range from $- hbox{40},^{circ}{hbox{C}}$ to $+ hbox{125},^{circ}{hbox{C}}$ after we cut the lines by tungsten-carbide needles. Phase noise is $-$90 dBc/Hz@1 MHz offset. Differential output power delivered by the VCO is 5 dBm, which is an optimum level to drive the mixer. The receiver occupies 0.5 ${hbox{mm}}^{2}$ without pads and 1.26 ${hbox{mm}}^{2}$ with pads, and consumes 595 mW. The measurement of the whole receiver at 79 GHz shows 20–26 dB gain in the linear region with stable IF output signal. The input ${rm P}_{rm 1dB}$ of the receiver is $-$35 dBm.
