Abstract

It is a challenging task to improve reliable and high-speed data communication between Transmitter and Receiver. Achieving high data rate using block codes and convolution codes is still questionable through a wireless channel. Turbo codes are a class of high performance forward error correction (FEC) codes with OFDM with adaptive Modulation for 4G and LTE applications. In this paper, BER analysis is carried out for TURBO-coded OFDM data with adaptive modulation mode switching using BPSK, QPSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM. Adaptive modulation scheme is assisted by decision feedback equalizer (DFE) which controls modulation mode. Its output SNR is used as a switching metric. DFE is used to select modulation mode. It is observed that average spectral efficiency (bits per second/Hz) is much higher for adaptive modulation scheme. For higher modulation scheme average spectral efficiency is gradually increases up to 40 dB, that indicates its throughput is much higher in comparison with fixed modulation modes.
