Performance analysis of coded multi-carrier wideband systems over fading channels

In this paper, we propose an efficient method to analyze the performance of coded multi-carrier systems over multipath fading channels. The computation complexity is low and moreover, the analysis is able to capture the system performance with a specific interleaver which is not possible under the common uniform interleaving assumption. The framework in this paper can also be generalized to coded multi-channel systems that suffer from correlated fading process.
