An FPGA Implementation of TCM Cascade Space Time Block Code

Article Preview

Abstract:

Trellis coded (TCM) modulation can obtain the coding gain without increase the transmission power and the bandwidth but it can not obtain diversity gain, and space-time block code (STBC) can provide diversity gain in a simple encoding and decoding way, though its coding gain is not very satisfied. This article will achieve a STBC-class networking trellis coded modulation scheme based on FPGA to further study the performance of the concatenated code.
