Abstract

In this paper, error‐control coding is used with a six‐port direct‐digital QPSK receiver [1] in an AWGN channel. The direct‐conversion wideband six‐port millimeter wave receiver proposed herein meets the needs of MMIC mass‐market wireless communications. Convolutional code and Turbo code are used as the channel codes for the first time in this type of receiver. The BER results for the convolutional code, turbo code, and the uncoded system in the six‐port receiver, are presented at a bit rate of 1 Mbps. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
