<p>Thanks to the success of smart phones and mobile-ready laptops, data traffic has recently grown exponentially, and the demand for mobile data has risen very dramatically. These requests in large capacity can only be satisfied by a high efficiency and a very good optimization of the infrastructures of the mobile networks, while taking into account the constraints which are the power, bandwidth and a limited complexity. The task of developing mobile technologies has also evolved from a national or regional focus to a complex and growing mission, supported by global standards development organizations such as 3GPP (3rd Group Partnership Project). Through this research, we present everything related to the simulation of the 4G mobile network system (LTE), which can provide high data flow with good quality, through three model channels known as (EPA, EVA, ETU). In this work we focus on the block ‘iterative decoding channel encoder’ in the LTE system, where the iterative channel coding called ‘Turbo-code’ (TC) is substituted by the iterative coding channel called ‘Unpunctured Turbo Trellis-coded Modulation’ (UTTCM). The simulation results showed that with less decoding complexities, UTTCM's LTE system gives good performance (in terms of BER).</p>

Simulation Results

In this paper, the performance of the Unpunctured Turbo Trellis-Coded Modulation (UTTCM) over Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel is analyzed using the non-binary extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) chart. The exchange of the extrinsic information between the decoder components is tracked, allowing the generation of an EXIT chart, which is a powerful tool for analyzing the convergence behavior of iterative decoding and prediction of convergence position. The Simulation results are compared with the turbo cliff positions on the BER curves.
