To satisfy the advanced forward-error-correction (FEC) standards, in which the Convolutional code and Turbo code may co-exit, a prototype design of a unified Convolutional/Turbo de...
Based on a recent development in the area of error control coding, we introduce the notion of convolutional factor graphs (CFGs) as a new class of probabilistic graphical models. ...
The increasing complexity of hardware features for recent processors makes high performance code generation very challenging. In particular, several optimization targets have to b...
— For many wireless communication links, such as those employing turbo codes or sequentially-decoded convolutional codes, the power consumption of the decoder at the receiver dep...
