Abstract

In multi-carrier modulation (MCM) systems multiple relatively narrowband sub-carriers are used to alleviate the undesirable influence of frequency selective fading. This paper analyses the performance of MCM data links when forward error correction is employed either in each sub-carrier or in the main stream of bits. The influences on system performance of interleaving and suppression of the poorest sub-carriers are also analysed.
