Is co-channel C/I equivalent to in band SNR?
For example, in Bluetooth spec the co-channel C/I is 11dB. Then, can we regard it as inband SNR=11dB (ignore system noise) and analysis BER according this?
C/I refers to modulated carrier. THe Carrier/Noise level may be high for random noise but with high co-channel interference
S/N refers to baseband,
it depends on the modulation deviation factors and ideal detection, makes a difference on improvements using matched filters and integration of all the energy in the symbol.
So, with same power level of co-channel interference and random noise, the modulated interference will cause less BER than random noise, right? If yes, why?
