Background and Motivation


• LDPC codes for 802.11n [1-4]
– First proposed in [1]
– Over SISO link: LDPC codes have 2-4 dB gain over CC6
(Convolutional code memory 6) in AWGN. The gain decreases by
1-2 dB in fading model D (50 ns RMS) due to the limited time
diversity [2,3]
– Over uncorrelated MIMO link: LDPC codes have similar
performance gain over CC6 in both AWGN and spatial
uncorrelated fading channel [4]
• Motivation: What is the LDPC gain over CC6 over
correlated 11n channels where frequency diversity and
spatial diversity are present

Conclusions
• Performance comparison of regular LDPC codes
and convolutional codes in 11n channel models B
and D is presented.
• The indoor fading channel provides limited timing
diversity, and cause degraded coding gain for
LDPC codes in SISO link [2,3]
• LDPC codes can effectively utilize the spatial
diversity in MIMO link and the frequency
diversity
