Description
Summary:In multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission systems, the channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter can be used to add linear precoding to the transmitted signals in order to improve the performance and the reliability of the transmission system. This paper investigates how to properly join precoded closed-loop MIMO systems and nonbinary low density parity check (NB-LDPC). The q elements in the Galois field, GF(q), are directly mapped to q transmit symbol vectors. This allows NB-LDPC codes to perfectly fit with a MIMO precoding scheme, unlike binary LDPC codes. The new transmission model is detailed and studied for several linear precoders and various designed LDPC codes. We show that NB-LDPC codes are particularly well suited to be jointly used with precoding schemes based on the maximization of the minimum Euclidean distance (max-dmin) criterion. These results are theoretically supported by extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) analysis and are confirmed by numerical simulations.
