Our objective is to improve the performance of the retransmissions, keeping at the same time the complexity and the performance of the first transmission unaltered. We conclude that the so-called mapping rearrangement (MR) may considerably improve the performance if multidimensional modulation is applied. We evaluate the theoretical limits of bit-interleaved coded modulation with MR, verify the functioning of the practical coding scheme, and propose to improve the performance via iterative detection-decoding (BICM-ID) which brings considerable gains. In particular, for high coding rates, a 4 dB SNR gain over transmission without MR may be achieved.

We use Bonferroni-type lower and upper bounds to tightly estimate the BER performance in the range of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of interest. The results are shown to be useful for the convergence analysis of the iterative demapping via the so-called extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) charts and for the evaluation of the coded performance of BICM with iterative demapping (BICM-ID). Index Terms—BICM with iterative demapping (BICM-ID), bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM), Bonferroni bounds, iterative demapping, turbo decoding, turbo demapping. I.

We measured received power for 72 urban fixed wireless links at 5.8 GHz over a period of 48 hours each. We find that 5-minute power averages show temporal variations requiring additional fade margins close to 6 dB at the 90th percentile. The average power temporal variation was found to increase with the excess path loss of the link. We propose a model that accurately characterizes first and second order link statistics. Spatial and frequency diversity measurements allowed us to also assess the effectiveness of the corresponding fade mitigation techniques. From them we conclude that the long-term fades appear to be consistent with time-varying multipath propagation, as opposed to shadowing.
