Conference Proceeding: Noise Reduction for SC/FDE Systems by Pre- and Post Processing
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Noise represents a major performance limiting factor for wireless communication systems. Pre-and post processing of the transmitted information enables to reduce the influence of noise significantly, leading to a severe performance gain. We apply the derivation of an optimal pre-and post processing to a single carrier system with frequency domain equalization (SC/FDE). Comparisons between the standard SC/FDE system with a zero-forcing equalizer and the enhanced system show a performance gain of up to 8 dB at a bit error rate of 10<sup>-5</sup>.Wireless Technologies, 2007 European Conference on; 11/2007 -
Conference Proceeding: The advantages of a unique word for synchronisation and channel estimation in a SC/FDE system
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We investigate advantageous data structures of a single carrier system with frequency domain equalization (SC/FDE) for channel estimation and synchronisation. The concept of the SC/FDE system is based on a cyclic prefix - comparable to OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing). Three equivalent data structures for the SC/FDE system are given, based either on the well known cyclic prefix or on the use of a known symbol sequence - a so-called unique word (UW). We elaborate on the advantages that result for channel estimation and synchronisation.Personal Mobile Communications Conference, 2003. 5th European (Conf. Publ. No. 492); 05/2003
