Abstract :
The performance of several bit-interleaved coded modulation schemes using turbo codes is investigated for communication over Rayleigh fading channels. Simulation results indicate that, for any spectral efficiency ranging from 2 to 7 bit/s/Hz, these systems provide excellent bit error rate performance, being within 1.1 dB of the channel capacity
