Convolutional code performance as a function of decoding delay
نویسنده
چکیده
Unterminated rate 3=4 convolutional codes are studied experimentally using the forward-backward algorithm over a 1% binary symmetric channel. A lower bit error probability is found for systematic compared to non-systematic generator matrices. It is further found that a decoding delay of 7m is needed to fully exploit the error-correcting capabilities of the code.

Pipeline Decoding of Woven Convolutional Codes
A pipeline decoder for woven convolutional codes (WCCs) is introduced. The decoding is performed iteratively by shifting a window over the received sequence. For the symbol–by–symbol a posteriori (s/s– APP) decoding of convolutional code segments, a windowed version of the BCJR algorithm is applied. This pipeline concept allows a trade–off between decoding delay, decoding complexity, and perfor...
متن کاملWhy block-length and delay are not the same thing
Classically, information theorists have understood the tradeoff between delay and system error performance by using block-length as a proxy. Although this turns out to be correct when feedback is absent, it is shown to be very misleading when feedback is available. For symmetric channels, fixed block-length communication systems show no improvements in their error exponents while fixed delay sy...
متن کاملA combined soft-decision deinterleaver/decoder for the IS95 reverse link
The reverse link encoding steps of the IS95 cellular code-division multiple-access (CDMA) standard consist of convolutional encoding, block interleaving, and orthogonal Walsh function encoding. Deinterleaving individual symbol metrics obtained from the Walsh function matched filters followed by conventional Viterbi decoding produces suboptimal results, as unwanted intersymbol Walsh function cor...
متن کاملA Comparison Between LDPC Block and Convolutional Codes
LDPC convolutional codes have been shown to be capable of achieving the same capacity-approaching performance as LDPC block codes with iterative message-passing decoding. However, traditional means of comparing block and convolutional codes tied to the implementation complexity of trellisbased decoding are irrelevant for message-passing decoders. In this paper, we undertake a comparison of LDPC...
