Iterative IDMA Receivers with Random and Tree Based Interleavers

Abstract

In recent days, on the horizon of wireless world, newly proposed multiple access scheme known as Interleave-Division Multiple-Access (IDMA) has made its remarkable impact. Researchers all over world, are making hard marks to establish the scheme to establish its claim as potential candidate for 4th generation wireless communication systems. This paper is concerned with the performance enhancement of iterative IDMA systems under coded & uncoded environment. The performance of an interleave division multiple access (IDMA) system can be improved by the optimized power allocation techniques. Based on the optimized power allocation technique we compare the performance of coded & uncoded IDMA system with random interleaver & tree based interleaver. During the simulation, it has been observed that tree based interleaver demonstrate the similar bit error rate (BER) performance to that of random interleaver however on other fronts including bandwidth and memory requirement at transmitter and receiver ends, it outperforms the random interleavers.
