In this paper, the iterative decoding of BCH product codes also called Block Turbo Codes (BTC) is evaluated for the HIPERLAN/2 OFDM system. Simulations show that expurgated BCH codes should be chosen as constituent codes in order to outperform the specified convolutional code. We also show that the bit-by-bit frequency interleaver has a big impact on the behaviour of the turbo decoding process and that increasing its size together with time diversity lead to good performance when compared to the convolutional code.
