Due to the powerful error correcting performance, turbo codes have been adopted in many wireless communication standards. Although several low-power techniques have been proposed,...
—As turbo decoding is a highly memory-intensive algorithm consuming large power, a major issue to be solved in practical implementation is to reduce power consumption. This paper...
—This paper presents an energy-efficient turbo decoder based on border metric encoding, which is especially suitable for non-binary circular turbo codes. In the proposed method, ...
Abstract— This paper is interested in applying voltage overscaling (VOS) to reduce trellis decoder energy consumption, where the key issue is how to minimize the decoding perform...
CT This paper investigates the low power implementation issues of the soft-output Viterbi algorithm (SOVA), a building block for turbo codes. By briefly explaining the theory of t...
