Effective multithreshold decoding algorithms for wireless communication channels

Multithreshold decoding algorithms for self-orthogonal error-correction codes have been considered. Analytical estimations of their efficiency in the uncorrelated Rayleigh and Rician channels have been represented. Results of the computer simulation have been obtained. Possibilities to apply multithreshold decoders in combination with such technologies of the efficiency increase of data transmission systems in wireless fading channels as OFDM, MIMO, precoding are considered. The paper has shown that application of precoding under such conditions ensures a significant improvement of coding gain of the data transmission system.
