BER Performance Analysis of MIMO-OFDM CommunicationSystems Using Iterative Technique Over Indoor Power LineChannels in an Impulsive Noise Environment

This paper addresses the performance of MIMO-OFDM communication system in environments where the interfering noise exhibits non-Gaussian behavior due to impulsive phenomena. It presents the design and simulation of an iterative technique that aims to minimize the effect of impulsive noise on the performance of the MIMO-OFDM communication system under Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel. This is a new method to recover the signals corrupted by impulsive noise in MIMO-OFDM systems over In-home Power Line Channel. The location and amplitude Impulsive noise at the receiver using an adaptive threshold to be determined. Reduced Impulsive noise effects using the mask based on the soft decision method. By iteration, the original signal estimation can be used to improve the impulsive noise estimation. This continuous loop impulsive noise detection and mitigation a better estimate of the original signal is obtained. The Bit Error Rate (BER) performance of the MIMO-OFDM system in an impulsive noise environment was evaluated. The results show the superiority and robustness of the proposed method.
