Abstract
This paper proposes a new stopping criterion for BICM-ID (bit-interleaved coded modulation with iterative decoding) system based on the CE (cross-entropy) stopping criterion. Unlike the conventional CE stopping criterion, the new scheme only computes and compares the cross-entropy value of the odd bits of the entire frame bits. We name the proposed new criterion as Partial-CE stopping criterion. The new criterion can reduce about 50% computation complexity of the BICM-ID receiver. Simulations comparing the new criterion with the original CE stopping criterion show that the proposed Partial-CE scheme can achieve similar performances in terms of BER and the average iteration numbers.
