In this letter we present efficient iterative frequency domain equalization for single-carrier (SC) transmission systems with insufficient cyclic prefix (CP). Based on minimum mean square error (MMSE) criteria, iterative decision feedback frequency domain equalization (IDF-FDE) combined with cyclic prefix reconstruction (CPR) is derived to mitigate inter-symbol interference (ISI) and inter-carrier interference (ICI). Computer simulation results reveal that the proposed scheme significantly improves the performance of SC systems with insufficient CP compared with previous schemes.

In this paper, a cost-efficient LDPC decoder for DVB-S2 is presented. Based on the Normalized Min-Sum algorithm and the turbo-decoding message-passing (TDMP) algorithm, a dual line-scan scheduling is proposed to enable hardware reusing. Furthermore, we present the solution to the address conflict issue caused by the characteristic of the parity-check matrix defined by DVB-S2 LDPC codes. Based on SMIC 0.13 µm standard CMOS process, the LDPC decoder has an area of 12.51 mm2. The required operating frequency to meet the throughput requirement of 135 Mbps with maximum iteration number of 30 is 105 MHz. Compared with the latest published DVB-S2 LDPC decoder, the proposed decoder reduces area cost by 34%.
