Abstract :
The single-carrier (SC) transmission performance degrades due to inter-symbol interference (ISI) in a frequency-selective fading channel. To improve the transmission performance, joint use of Tomlinson-Harashima precoding (THP) and frequency-domain equalization (FDE) is promising. In this paper, we derive the conditional bit error rate (BER) for the given set of channel gains in a frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channel. We evaluate the average BER performance by Monte-Carlo numerical computation method using the derived conditional BER. The theoretical analysis is confirmed by computer simulation of the signal transmission.
