Abstract
A Single Carrier Block Transmission (SCBT) system employs an inherently parallel approach to error correction processing. At the transmission system (), an incoming data stream is split () into P parallel data streams, each having a data rate equal to a fraction of the incoming data stream's data rate. The parallel data streams are then each separately encoded () in P parallel encoding processes (beneficially, using P parallel encoders ()). The P separately encoded data streams are then merged (), interleaved (), and mapped () into a single stream of encoded symbols, which are transmitted to the receiver using an arbitrary modulation () and transmission scheme. At the receiver (), the received data stream is de-interleaved () and split into P encoded data streams, which are then decoded () using P parallel decoders. Then, the decoded data streams are combined or multiplexed () into a single data stream.
