ABSTRACT
This study addresses the problems of designing a low undetected error rate (e. g., 10−8) communication system for the transmission of large quantities of computer data between two remote locations. The study effort includes a characterization of the interconnect channels, and an analysis, evaluation and recommendations for coding techniques. The channel characterization effort is directed toward producing a model of the interconnect links. The model is shown to be representative of real interconnect links based on a comparison with measured bit error data. The error correcting coding effort is directed toward the development and evaluation of forward error correcting (FEC) coding techniques based on generalized burst trapping codes. In addition, consideration is given to automatic repeat request (ARQ) error control. Several basic approaches to providing error control for the computer-to-computer data transmission channel are considered.

Antenna diversity combining and finite-tap decision feedback equalization for high-speed data transmission
The next-generation wireless communication systems are expected to support high-speed data transmission. Associated with high transmission rates, however, is the problem of multipath intersymbol interference (ISI) due to frequency-selective fading. ...
Multiuser MIMO Beamforming for Single Data Stream Transmission in Frequency-Selective Fading Channels
In this paper, we propose a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) beamforming scheme for a multiuser system in frequency-selective fading channels. The maximum signal-to-noise and interference ratio (MSINR) is adopted as a criterion to determine the ...
An adaptive modulation scheme for simultaneous voice and data transmission over fading channels
We propose a new adaptive modulation technique for simultaneous voice and data transmission over fading channels and study its performance. The proposed scheme takes advantage of the time-varying nature of fading to dynamically allocate the transmitted ...
