Hybrid iterative strategy for parallel intersymbol interference channels

In this paper, we propose a hybrid iterative strategy for exploiting transmit diversity using parallel independent intersymbol interference (ISI) channels. In this adaptive iterative strategy we use extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) chart tool to choose appropriate iterative method from iterative combining (IC) used as parallel concatenation turbo-like scheme and turbo equalization (TE) used as serial concatenation turbo-like scheme. It is show that the proposed hybrid iterative strategy provides excellent performance both analytically and through simulations without any compute complexity increase.
