Abstract

Space-time block codes (STBCs) are designed to obtain the full diversity gain. However, STBCs are not designed to achieve an additional coding gain. Therefore, STBCs need to be concatenated with an outer code which provides a significant coding gain. Turbo product codes (TPCs) are a kind of high-efficient coding scheme with low latency decoding, which do not suffer from an error floor associated with turbo codes. This article considers the concatenation of TPCs with STBCs and sets up coded OFDM system to improve the reliability of the wireless communication systems. Finally, the paper presents simulating environment and results of experiment testing.
