Abstract

To improve the overall performance of time-domain synchronous (TDS) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems, novel iterative decoding and channel estimation algorithm with Nordstrom-Robinson (NR) code is proposed in this paper. Compared to the non-iterative case, the system performance can be significantly improved by the proposed iterative algorithm at the cost of a little complexity and latency increase. Simulation results show that, for example, with maximum Doppler spread of 25 Hz under two typical multipath channels at bit error rate (BER) of 10^-4, the signal to noise ratio (SNR) performance of the proposed iterative algorithm is only 0.2 to 0.3 dB away from the ideal case, and about t dB or more better than the non-iterative one.
