Performance of Periodic Spectrum Transmission for Single-Carrier with Frequency-Domain Equalization using Channel Coding

This paper presents the performance of periodic spectrum transmission for single-carrier with frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE) using channel coding. So far, we have proposed periodic spectrum transmission and showed the effectiveness of enhancing a frequency diversity benefit compared with the typical case when adopting a low rate transmission such as 1-bit/sample. In this paper, the impact of channel coding on the proposed scheme is intensively discussed compared with coded OFDM (COFDM) as well as the typical SC-FDE. This is because OFDM is sure to be the promising approach when taking channel coding into account. Computer simulation results show that the proposed scheme 1-bit/sample transmission outperforms COFDM irrespective of coding rate.
