Abstract
When digital data is sent over a wireless channel, transmission errors may occur. These errors are for instance caused by interferences in the channel. To improve the performance of the communication link, error detection and correction codes are used. Before starting implementing this link, a well-considered choice of forward error correction (FEC) is very important. In this article instructions are given to help finding the right error correction code for a specific application. After an introduction on channel models, the typical errors introduced by these channels are given. The efficiency of error correction codes, like Reed Solomon and convolutional codes, is tested by means of simulations. First we look at the performance of forward error correction codes for different channels. Based on the properties of both, the channel and the error correction code, we explain the simulation results.. In this way, a guideline for the choice of a FEC code is presented. |
