Performance analysis of turbo codes in wireless rician fading channel with low rician factor

We focus on the Bit Error Rate (BER) performance analysis problem of high efficient turbo codes in wireless Rician channels with low Rician factor in this paper. The structure of turbo code in 3GPP LTE standard is referred. The research is investigated in several aspects to evaluate the performance of turbo codes in Rician fading channel with low Rician K-factor, such as using different channel model, different coding rate, different internal interleavers, and different Rician factors. The simulation results give some demonstrations that are valuable for the application of turbo codes in Rician fading channel with low Rician K-factor.
