Summary :

This paper proposes a new evaluation method for ARQ schemes. The decoded bit error rate versus E_b/N₀ and the bandwidth expansion ratio are adopted as criteria to measure performance capability. The method makes it possible to compare the performance capabilities of various error control schemes on the same basis. Since this method clarifies the E_b/N₀ and the bandwidth required for obtaining the desired BER, it gives some useful indication on deciding which scheme to use in a particular application. FEC, ARQ, Type- hybrid ARQ, and Type- hybrid ARQ, each of which uses a binary BCH code with a common code length, are taken up as examples for analysis. The numerical results show that well designed hybrid ARQ schemes can considerably reduce E_b/N₀, at a cost of a small bandwidth increase. Based on the foregoing analysis, this paper also proposes a constant-rate ARQ scheme with finite buffers. This scheme offers a constant throughput rate and a constant delay time as a conventional FEC scheme. It requires less E_b/N₀ than an FEC scheme. The numerical results are presented for some examples. The results on the fixed bandwidth expansion ratio show that the proposed scheme with a binary BCH code requires less E_b/N₀ than an FEC scheme using a convolutional code and soft decision Viterbi decoding. The decoder of the proposed scheme is much simpler than a Viterbi decoder. This proposed rate-constant ARQ scheme is suitable for application to those systems in which a feedback channel is available and a constant throughput rate and a constant delay time are required.
