ABSTRACT
Multiple inputs multiple outputs (MIMO) realized through employing
multiple antennas at both transmitter and receiver provides low bit error rate and high
transmission rate as required by future digital wireless communication systems.
Space time coding and spatial multiplexing are the two approaches in exploiting
MIMO channel. This project proposes a new multiple inputs multiple output-
orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system employing
single parity check multidimensional turbo product codes (MDTPC) that will provide
high bit rate transmission with low bit error rate over correlated frequency selective
fading channels. The initial work is developing the dimensional-based reading order
(DBRO) algorithm for generating the MDTPC codeword sequences. The MDTPC
codeword sequence is then applied to MIMO-OFDM system that exploits space,
time, and frequency diversity and provides full-rate transmission. The system
provides diversity gain of 2.5 dB in signal to noise ratio (SNR) and coding gain of 3
dB. Spatial multiplexing space-time coded MDTPC-MIMO-OFDM system with
antennas grouping (AG-SMST-SPC-MDTPC-MIMO-OFDM) is then developed to
increase the transmission rate. The result shows that the system provides a high
transmission rate of 8 bps/Hz at SNR of 10 dB using two groups of four transmit
antennas. The final task is designing the accurate channel estimation for the AG-
SMST-MDTPC-MIMO-OFDM system employing pilot symbol assistance and least
square estimation using mean-square error criterion. The channel estimator achieves
mean-square error of 7x10-4 which is highly accurate. The proposed system provides
high transmission bit rate of 120 Mbps with bit error rate of 10-5 at SNR of 18 dB for
two groups of four transmit antennas. It can be implemented in wireless local area
network (WLAN) and can also be deployed in any broadband wireless system.

ABSTRAK
Masukan berganda keluaran berganda (MIMO) wujud dengan penggunaan
antena berganda pada kedua-dua pemancar dan penerima bagi menyediakan kadar
ralat bit rendah dan kadar penghantaran tinggi sebagaimana yang diperlukan oleh
sistem-sistem perhubungan digital wayarles masa hadapan. Pengekodan ruang masa
dan gandaan mengikut ruang adalah dua pendekatan penggunaan saluran MIMO.
Projek ini mencadangkan sebuah sistem masukan berganda keluaran berganda-
pemultiplek pembahagi frekuensi ortogonal (MIMO-OFDM) yang baru bagi
menjalankan pemeriksaan persamaan tunggal pengekodan sejajar turbo dimensi
rantaian (MDTPC) yang akan menyediakan kadar penghantaran bit tinggi dengan
kadar ralat bit rendah sepanjang saluran berpudar berkaitan frekuensi terpilih. Kerja
awal adalah membangunkan algoritma berdasar dimensi pembacaan urutan (DBRO)
untuk menjana urutan-urutan kod MDTPC. Urutan-urutan kod MDTPC kemudian
digunakan kepada sistem MIMO-OFDM yang mengeksploitasikan kepelbagian
ruang, masa, dan frekuensi dan menyediakan kadar penghantaran penuh. Sistem ini
menyediakan kepelbagian gandaan 2.5 dB dalam nisbah isyarat hingar (SNR) dan
pengekodan gandaan 3 dB. Gandaan ruang bagi ruang-masa berkod sistem MDTPC-
MIMO-OFDM dengan antena berkumpul (AG-SMST-MDTPC-MIMO-OFDM)
kemudian dibangunkan untuk meningkatkan kelajuan penghantaran. Hasil kerja
menunjukkan bahawa sistem menyediakan kadar penghantaran yang tinggi iaitu 8
bps/Hz pada SNR 10 dB dengan menggunakan dua kumpulan yang terdiri daripada
empat antena. Kerja terakhir adalah merekabentuk pengiraan saluran bagi sistem
AG-SMST-MDTPC-MIMO-OFDM dengan menggunakan pembantu simbol
berpandu dan penganggaran ganda dua terkecil menggunakan kriteria purata ralat
ganda dua. Penganggar saluran memperolehi purata ralat ganda dua 7x10-4 yang
mana adalah ketepatan yang tinggi. Sistem yang dicadangkan mencapai kadar
penghantaran 120 Mbps dengan kadar ralat bit 10-5 pada SNR 18 dB untuk dua group
dari empat antena penghantar. Ianya boleh digunakan dalam aplikasi rangkaian
kawasan tempatan wayarles (WLAN) dan boleh juga digunakan dalam mana-mana
sistem jalur lebar wayarles.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has become a popular
technique for transmission of signal over wireless channel. OFDM converts a
frequency-selective channel into a parallel collection of frequency flat channels. The
sub-carriers have the minimum frequency separation required to maintain
orthogonality of their corresponding time domain waveforms, yet the signal spectra
corresponding to different sub-carriers overlap in frequency. Based on these
advantage, OFDM has been adopted in several wireless standards such as digital
audio broadcasting (DAB), digital video broadcasting (DVB-T), the IEEE802.11a
(IEEE, 1999) local area network (LAN) standard and the IEEE 802.16a (IEEE, 2003)
metropolitan area network (MAN) standard. OFDM is also being pursued for
dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) for road side to vehicle
communications and as potential candidate for fourth-generation (4G) mobile
wireless systems.
The IEEE 802.11a LAN standard operates at raw data rates up to 54 Mbps
(channel condition permitting) with a 20 MHz channel spacing, thus yielding a
bandwidth efficiency of 2.7 bps/Hz (IEEE, 1999). The actual throughput is highly
dependent on the medium access control (MAC) protocol. Likewise, IEEE802.16a
operates in many modes depending on channel conditions with a data rate ranging
from 4.20 to 22.91 Mbps in typical bandwidth of 6 MHz, translating into bandwidth
2
efficiency of 0.7 to 3.82 bps/Hz (IEEE, 2003). Recent development of OFDM
combined with multiple input multiple output (MIMO) techniques promise a
significant performance boost. Broadband MIMO-OFDM systems with bandwidth
efficiency of the order of 10 bps/Hz are feasible for LAN/MAN environments
(Stubber et al., 2004).
MIMO system is an arrangement of multiple antennas that can be used at
transmitter and receiver. A MIMO system takes advantage of the spatial diversity
that is obtained by spatially separated antennas in a dense multi-path scattering
environment. MIMO systems may be implemented in a number of different ways to
provide a diversity gain and combat signal fading in order to obtain a capacity gain.
Generally, there are three different ways in exploiting MIMO system. The first
reason is to improve the power efficiency by maximizing spatial diversity. This
approaches provides low bit error rate at low signal to noise ratio (SNR). Such
techniques include delay diversity (Wittneben, 1993), space–time block codes
(STBC) (Alamouti, 1998; Tarokh et al., 1999) and space–time trellis codes (STTC)
(Tarokh et al., 1998). The second method uses a layered approach (spatial
multiplexing) to increase capacity. One popular example of such a system is V-
BLAST suggested by (Wolniansky et al. 1998) where full spatial diversity is usually
not achieved. Finally, the third type exploits the knowledge of channel at the
transmitter to maximize the link level capacity relate to capacity gain. It decomposes
the channel coefficient matrix using singular value decomposition (SVD) and uses
these decomposed unitary matrices as pre- and post-filters at the transmitter and the
receiver to achieve near capacity (Ha et al., 2002). This approach requires a
feedback channel from receiver to transmitter to send the channel parameters
experienced by the transmitted signals.
Spatial diversity improves the MIMO system in term of link reliability and
error-rate performance of the system (Bliss et al., 2004; Ajib and Haccoun, 2005).
STTC give high transmission rate with low error-rate at the cost of receiver
complexity that increased exponentially as the number of antenna increase. STBC
require linear decoding thus it is less complex. However, STBC does not provide
coding gain. Another disadvantage of STBC is that these code decrease the
3
transmission rate when the number of transmit antenna are more than two. Both
STTC and STBC are designed for flat fading channel and are not suitable for fast and
selective fading channel (Alamouti, 1998; Tarokh et al., 1998). On the other hand,
layered MIMO techniques are addressed to provide high transmission rate but
sacrifice the error rate performance. Since the distinct symbol streams are
transmitted from multiple transmit antennas, they will interfere each other that
introduce errors during transmission. To improve the error rate performance of the
layered MIMO, powerful coding techniques have to be used, such as turbo codes
(Jameel and Yu, 2003) and turbo product code (TPC) (Du and Chan, 2004). Turbo
code has high error correction capability among the error correcting codes. The
encoder and decoder of turbo codes are very complex since they work based on the
trellis diagram (trellis-based codes). TPC warrants less competent error correction
capability compared to turbo code with less complex encoder and decoder processing.
The existing decoder of TPC experiences the local minima in the convergence region
and converges gradually at slow rate.
1.2 Problem Statement
The existing space-time codes enhance the error rate performance of the
wireless transmission system over MIMO channels at the cost of decreasing the
transmission rate. Both STBC and STTC that employ several transmit antennas
produce maximum rate of only 3/4 symbol/s/Hz. The encoding and decoding of
STBC is simple, but STBC does not grant coding gain. On the other hand, STTC
provides coding gain but its encoding and decoding is complex. Furthermore, the
performance of these codes will degrade greatly when the fading is changing rapidly
within one transmitted symbol duration since the codes were designed for slow time
varying fading channel.
The performance of spatial multiplexing MIMO system can be enhanced
through the use of robust error correcting codes (Kothandaraman, 2002; Li et al.,
2003; Lee et al., 2003; Gidlund and Ahag, 2003; Du and Chan, 2005). The
4
performance enhancement can also be obtained by applying space-time codes onto
spatial multiplexing MIMO system (Mao and Motani, 2005; Wu et al., 2002). Other
means include developing accurate symbol detection at the receiver (Artes et al.,
2003), improving the signal shaping at the transmitter (Clerckx et al., 2004), and
grouping the transmitter antennas combined with space-time coding (Chen and
Haimovich, 2004; Xia et al., 2005). These approaches usually decrease the overall
transmission rate of the system. The usage of OFDM on spatial multiplexing MIMO
system will not only mitigate the effect of frequency-selectivity of the faded channels
but also enhance the spectrum efficiency of the channel. The OFDM signal will
divide the frequency-selective channel bandwidth into narrower flat channel
bandwidth since OFDM employs several narrowband subcarriers.
The performance of the MIMO-OFDM system is highly dependent on the
accuracy of the channel estimation schemes. The task on this issue is how to design
accurate channel estimation with low complexity and low symbol overhead on the
transmission. The most accurate channel estimation is pilot-symbol assisted (PSA)
channel estimation where the known symbol sequences at receiver are distributed
along the transmitted frame. This technique introduces high overhead when applied
to MIMO system since the pilot symbols are inserted at every transmitted frame.
Finding the optimal pilot training sequences for MIMO system is another issue that
should be explored. The optimization criteria are in terms of overhead and energy
consumption.
1.3 Objective of the Research
In order to increase the transmission rate and to improve the error rate
performance of MIMO-OFDM over wireless correlated frequency-selective fast
fading channels, the challenge is how to design the coding techniques that exploit the
space, time, and frequency diversity whilst providing full transmission rate (1
symbol/s/Hz). Another challenge is how to increase the channel capacity of the
MIMO OFDM system over time varying and frequency-selective fading channel. In
5
real system, the receiver of MIMO OFDM system requires the channel information
to perform detection and decoding, therefore the channel estimation of the full-rate
space-time coded MIMO OFDM system is another issue that should be investigated.
The objective of the research is to develop a MIMO-OFDM system design
that consist of channel coding, interleaving, space-time-frequency coding, spatial
multiplexer, and channel estimation. The design should fulfill the following features.
(i) Powerful channel code with high code rate and simple encoding and decoding
processes
(ii) Exploit space, time, and frequency diversity that will provide full rate
transmission
(iii) Employ spatial multiplexing to provide high transmission rate
(iv) Deploy low complexity MIMO detector with accurate channel estimation and
low overhead
The MIMO-OFDM system should achieve low bit error rate at low power
transmission (SNR).
1.4 Scope of the Research
The research will develop the MIMO-OFDM system that will function well
in correlated multipath frequency selective fast fading wireless channel. High rate
multidimensional turbo product code (MDTPC) will be used as error correcting code
and also for granting space, time, and frequency diversity in the system. Amplitude
modulator is used to convert the coded bit to the modulated symbols and then
transform to sub-carriers in OFDM block using inverse fast Fourier transformation.
These OFDM symbols will be transmitted trough multiple transmit antenna.
Multiple antennas are also employed at the receiver with OFDM demodulator
at each branch. Fast Fourier transformation (FFT) is used to convert the OFDM
symbols (time domain) to modulated symbols (frequency domain). These modulated
6
symbols composed of transmitted symbols from all transmit antennas and MIMO
detector will be used to separate them again. After computing the soft detected
coded bits, soft iterative decoding will be performed using parallel MDTPC decoder.
The recovery information bits will be obtained by applying hard decision. These bits
will be used for investigating the behavior and performance of the system
The development of the above system consists of several phases. The first
phase is designing high rate MDTPC. Single parity check code (SPC) has been
selected to be used as component code of MDTPC to provide high code rate. The
possible codewords are generated from MDTPC and the mapping functions are
derived. The performance of MDTPC has been improved by developing parallel
iterative MDTPC decoder with weighting feedback. Mathematical analysis and
computer simulation using MATLAB has been developed to study the performance
of MDTPC over additive white Gaussian noise channel (AWGN) and Rayleigh
fading channel.
The second phase is to provide the space, time, and frequency diversity in
MIMO OFDM system by employing the possible codeword sequences of MDTPC.
Space and time diversity has been exploited by transmitting the possible codeword
sequences through different transmit antennas. Frequency diversity is obtained by
employing OFDM modulator at the transmitter. These space-time codes ST-MDTPC
provides full transmission rate (1 symbol/s/Hz). In order to increase the transmission
rate, the spatial multiplexing with antenna grouping defined as AG-SMST-MDTPC-
MIMO-OFDM has been developed. Optimum MIMO detector has been developed
using maximum likelihood (ML) decision criteria, while, sub optimum detector was
designed using zero forcing (ZF) detection. Mathematical models and computer
simulation has been expanded to investigate the system performance in frequency
selective multipath fading channel. The channel response samples are assumed to be
perfectly estimated and available at the receiver.
The final phase of the work is developing the channel estimation for AG-
SMST-MDTPC-MIMO-OFDM system employing pilot symbol sequences. The
search of optimum pilot sequences for least square (LS) adaptation algorithm with
7
regard to mean square error (MSE) criteria has been performed. A recursive LS
(RLS) algorithm is used to enhance the performance of the overall system.
Mathematical model and simulation using MATLAB is extended to investigate the
channel estimation performance and the system performance. The channel is
assumed to be frequency selective fast fading channel and the response samples of
these channels are correlated and Rayleigh distributed random variables.
1.5 Significance of the Work
The proposed AG-SMST-MTDC-MIMO-OFDM system is a baseband
processing part of a transmission (and receiver) system that can be applied to any
existing standard such as the IEEE 802.11a WLAN Standard. The significant works
in this research is developing that can be stated as follows:
• Generating possible codeword sequences of the MDTPC codes and
developing the corresponding mapping functions.
• Developing the full rate space-time code using the possible codeword
sequences of MDTPC for any number of transmit antennas. When
combining with OFDM transmission, the frequency diversity will be
available at the system.
• Developing the spatial multiplexing with antennas grouping while providing
space, time, and frequency diversity.
• Developing the channel estimation by employing pilot symbol assisted
sequences for AG-SMST-MDTPC-MIMO-OFDM system in correlated and
frequency selective fading channel. Optimum pilot sequences criteria are
derived in terms of overhead and energy consumption. Recursive adaptation
algorithm is developed.
The proposed system will generate wireless transmission system with high
transmission rate at multiple the numbers of antenna groups. Furthermore, the system
will endure low bit error rate and require low power transmission at high
8
transmission rate. The system can be easily extended to be applicable to any wireless
communication system standards such as WLAN, DAB, DVB, and DSRC.
