Turbo Receiver Design for Differentially Encoded PSK in Bursty Impulsive Noise Channels

Chin-Hung Chen, Boris Karanov, Wim van Houtom +2

It has been recognized that the impulsive noise (IN) generated by power devices poses significant challenges to wireless receivers. In this paper, we comprehensively assess the ach…

Blind Turbo Demodulation for Differentially Encoded OFDM with 2D Trellis Decomposition

Chin-Hung Chen, Yan Wu, Wim van Houtum +1

Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB)-like systems employ differentially encoded (DE) phase-shift keying (PSK) for transmission. While turbo-DE-PSK receivers offer substantial performan…

Phase-Aware Code-Aided EM Algorithm for Blind Channel Estimation in PSK-Modulated OFDM

Chin-Hung Chen, Ivana Nikoloska, Wim van Houtum +2

This paper presents a fully blind phase-aware expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm for OFDM systems with the phase-shift keying (PSK) modulation. We address the well-known local…
