Performance of Zero-Forcing MUTP assisted IDMA system for downlink communications

Abstract

In this contribution, we consider the performance of multi-user transmitter pre-processing (MUTP) assisted interleaved division multiple access (IDMA) scheme for downlink (DL) communications. We realize MUTP using Zero Forcing (ZF)algorithm. In this paper, we consider turbo coded system to achieve high coding gain. We construct the turbo code using parallel concatenated convolutional encoder and certain bits are punctured periodically to achieve code rate ½. We construct the pre-processing matrix using channel state information of all the users. We evaluate the performance of such coded ZF-MUTP assisted IDMA system for realistic channel model based on SUI channel model specifications. From our simulations, we observe that the ZF-MUTP assisted multi-user IDMA system provides better performance in terms of bit error rate (BER) with low signal to noise ratio (SNR).
