Performance Analysis of LDPC Coded Massive MIMO-OFDM System

Multiple Input Multiple Output Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO OFDM) wireless communication is well known in the literature. However, the problems occur in classical MIMO system can be overcome with large number of array antennas such systems, termed as Massive MIMO. But, the latency may be more for these systems using traditional equalizers such as Zero Forcing (ZF) and Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE). Hence, this paper proposes LDPC coded Massive MIMO OFDM system using Approximate Message Passing (AMP) equalizer. The performance of the proposed system is analysed through simulations. In this simulation, different transmit and receive antennas (64,128), (64,256), (64,512) and (64, 1024) and 16QAM are used. Finally, the performance of LDPC coded and uncoded massive MIMO OFDM using AMP equalizer is analyzed in comparison with ZF and MMSE equalizers using BER and latency as performance measures.
