Abstract
The performance of multilevel quadrature partial-response systems (QPRS) in the presence of an additive combination of Gaussian and impulsive noise is analytically evaluated by means of the Fourier-Bessel series expansion method. The model of the impulsive noise used, which closely models atmospheric and/or man-made electromagnetic interference, consists of a stream of Poisson impulses with areas distributed according to a power Rayleigh probability density function. Analytical performance evaluation results are presented for 9, 49, and 225 QPR systems. The results indicate severe system performance degradation, especially for highly bandwidth-efficient systems (e.g. 225 QPRS), mostly due to the long error bursts caused by the impulsive noise tails. However, a qualitative comparison between these results and the corresponding performance results of equivalent QAM schemes demonstrates that 49 QPRS could be a suitable choice for microwave radio or HDTV satellite links operating in pure impulsive noise environments.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
