In particular we consider the impact of inter-cell interference on the performance of an adaptive MIMO system. Inter-cell interference is always present in a cellular system. However, its value may be controlled by the type of cellular layout, i.e., the number of sectors and the frequency reuse pattern. In this paper we consider a number of cellular layouts and consider the impact of the resulting SINR on the constellation sizes that can be supported, the BER, etc. The primary metric used for our performance analysis is the error free transmission rate, and this is derived for the adaptive MIMO SVD system. For the cellular scenarios considered, we find that the effect of interference is considerable and the performance of the adaptive MIMO SVD scheme is only marginally better than that provided by conventional diversity methods","PeriodicalId":206040,"journal":{"name":"2006 Australian Communications Theory Workshop","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128253133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is, however, still an open problem to determine the optimal information for exchange between reduced complexity decoder components that are only approximating posterior probabilities. In this paper we investigate the use of weighted extrinsic feedback in iterative multiuser decoding for coded code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems. The case of no extrinsic feedback corresponds to the conventional approach of exchanging extrinsic information, while full extrinsic feedback corresponds to exchanging a posteriori information. Weighted extrinsic feedback offers a trade-off between the two extreme cases, which can provide significant improvements. These improvements are demonstrated through simulation of an iterative multiuser decoder using parallel interference cancellation as the soft-input, soft-output multiuser detector","PeriodicalId":206040,"journal":{"name":"2006 Australian Communications Theory Workshop","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133549589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper addresses a channel where Doppler offsets create specific challenges in a serial concatenated convolutional code (SCCC) system.

In the second case, we partition the network into clusters of cooperating base stations (local macrodiversity) thereby eliminating the growth in complexity at the receiver with network size. Macrodiversity is shown to provide very significant gains in sum capacity over single cell processing schemes where co-channel interference is the dominant impairment. We also explore the rate at which the sum capacity of the local macrodiversity scheme approaches that of global macrodiversity as the cluster size increases.","PeriodicalId":206040,"journal":{"name":"2006 Australian Communications Theory Workshop","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124788337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
