Comparison of error-control schemes for high-rate communication over short DSL loops affected by impulsive noise

Abstract

We consider Discrete Multitone Transmission over short Digital Subscriber Lines using bandwidths applicable to G.fast, in the presence of impulsive noise. Various combinations of coding and retransmission schemes are compared in terms of bit error ratio performance and error-free information bitrate (goodput). Our study shows that, under an error performance constraint, retransmission schemes allow to achieve larger good-put with smaller latency as compared to the traditional combination of Reed-Solomon coding and Trellis Coded Modulation with a large interleaver in between.
