Most existing Turbo unequal error protection (UEP) codes provide two error protection levels at the cost of extending the block size of the codeword or increasing the computational complexity. This paper proposes two novel Turbo UEP coding schemes, which provide multiple error protection levels for information bits, according to their different sensitivities to the channel noise. By permuting t...

The article by Oortwijn, Jansen, and Baltussen (OJB) is much more important than it appears because, in the absence of any good general theory of “evidence-informed deliberative processes” (EDP) and limited evidence of how they might be shaped and work in institutionalising health technology assessment (HTA), the best approach seems to be to accumulate the experience of...
