Wireless communication system having error-control coder and linear precoder

摘要

In general, joint error-control coding and linear precoding techniques are proposed for fading-resilient transmissions over frequency- at and frequency-selective fading channels encountered with high-rate wireless OFDM transmissions. For example, a wireless communication system includes a transmitter that applies non-linear codes and a linear precoder to a data stream to produce a joint coded-precoded waveform. A receiver receives the joint coded-precoded waveform from the transmitter via a wireless communication channel, and demodulates the joint-coded precoded waveform to produce estimated data. The combination offers a multiplicative benefit to the diversity achievable by the wireless communication system.
