Yet, there is limited contribution on the theoretical analysis of coded OFDM-PLC systems. In this letter, the β β2/1 and β 1 β/β21 NB-Convolutional (Non Binary) codes have been examined in an extreme PLC environment and an investigation of the performance analysis in terms of bit error rate (BER) of coded orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) PLC systems has been carried out. This analysis is accomplished with consideration of the realistic PLC frequency multi-path channels and for variant values of the background to impulsive noise ratio Γ. Finally, a fair comparison of the BER performance of β β2/1 NB-convolutional code with (1; 7=5)8 binary code is carried out.
