摘要:
We investigate bit-interleaved coded modulation with iterative decoding (BICM-ID) for bandwidth efficient transmission, where the bit error rate is reduced through iterations between a multilevel demapper and a simple channel decoder. In order to achieve a significant turbo-gain, the assignment strategy of the binary indices to signal points is crucial. We address the problem of finding the most suitable index assignments to arbitraryj high order signal constellations. A new method based on the binary switching algorithm is proposed that finds optimized mappings outperforming previously known ones.
