This algorithm mainly emp hasizes a decision mechanism for bit-flips, which thoroughly evaluates four different aspects of the decoding process, properly weighs and combines their respective reliability measures, and then employs the combined measure to make a judgment with regard to whether any particular bit should be flipped or not. Simulations result in a very steep Bit Error Rate (BER) curve indicating that a high-level net coding gain can be expected with a reasonable complexity. The simplicity and effectiveness of this HIHO decoding algorithm makes it a p romising candidate for the application in future high-speed fiber optical communications.展开更多

Both of the good error correcting capability of TPC and the large diversity gain of STBC can be achieved simultaneously. A Least Square Error-Recursive Least Square (LSE-RLS) algorithm is applied to estimate the channel and cancel the interference. Simulations show that the proposed system can obtain about 2.7dB gain in Es/N0 at the BER of 10^-3.展开更多
