Abstract

In high-rate wireless LAN, complementary code keying (CCK) is adopted in the IEEE 802.11b standard to support data rates up to 11 Mbps, much higher than the 2-Mbps data rate in the previous wireless LAN standard. Due to less-than-ideal characteristics of the CCK codewords, the CCK performs quite poorly in large-delay-spread multipath channels. In this paper, a new modulation scheme that combines the trellis coding with the CCK modulation is proposed. This scheme is shown, through simulation, to achieve much better error rate performance in medium-to-large channel delay spread environments.
