A turbo code has been included in the new CCSDS channel coding standard for space telemetry. Many future missions with critical link budgets will benefit of its large coding gain. ...
— In 1982 Ungerboeck presented a set-partitioning design technique for trellis coded modulation (TCM). Although this technique directly assigns constellation points to the branch...

In this paper we present the VLSI implementation of a high-throughput enhanced Max-log-MAP processor that supports both single-binary (SB) and double-binary (DB) convolutional tur...
— In this paper, we present a simple technique to approximate the performance union bound of a punctured turbo code. The bound approximation exploits only those terms of the tran...

— With the advent of EXtrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT) charts, we are capable of analyzing, predicting and visually comparing the convergence behaviours of different turbo Mu...
