In this paper we present a study of Bit Error Rate (BER), for Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) system, employing Coded OFDM with different channel coding schemes. Analysis is carried out for convolutional coded and turbo coded data in an Additive White Gaussian Channel (AWGN) based on different constraint lengths and code generator polynomials used for coding. A comparative study on the computational complexity is also done by applying an audio signal and measuring the data processing time per frame, on computers with different processor speeds. It is shown that a coding gain of approximately 6 dB is achieved using turbo coding when compared to convolutional coding, at a cost of higher computational complexity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
