An Exit-Chart Aided Design Procedure for Near-Capacity N-Component Parallel Concatenated Codes
1 Shannon's channel capacity specifies the upper bound on the amount of bits per channel use. In this paper, we explicitly demonstrate that twin-component turbo codes suffer f...

Coding theorems for turbo code ensembles
This paper is devoted to a Shannon-theoretic study of turbo codes. We prove that ensembles of parallel and serial turbo codes are "good" in the following sense. For a tur...

On Union Bounds for Random Serially Concatenated Turbo Codes with Maximum Likelihood Decoding
The input-output weight enumeration (distribution) function of the ensemble of serially concatenated turbo codes is derived, where the ensemble is generated by a uniform choice ov...

Wyner-Ziv Video Coding Based on Turbo Codes Exploiting Perfect Knowledge of Parity Bits
In a Wyner-Ziv video coding system based on turbo codes, parity bits are generated for a Wyner-Ziv frame and transmitted to the decoder. In this context of distributed source codi...

Turbo Codes Based Image Transmission for Channels with Both Random Errors and Packet Loss
Abstract— In this paper, we propose an unequal error protection (UEP) framework for progressive image transmission over wireless networks with both random errors and packet loss....
