Abstract

We analyze a wireless communication system in which channel coding is applied to both physical and upper layer. In this scenario, we study the splitting of redundancy between the coding schemes applied to the two layers. Considering a frequency-flat, slowly varying fading channel, we derive the optimum splitting value for a given signalling format. The theoretical analysis is validated by means of numerical simulation.
