A new code construction namely woven turbo codes, is presented , which is a variation of woven convolutional codes. Parallel encoders (turbo codes 2]) can be considered as a special case of woven turbo encoders, where only one outer and inner encoder is used. However, woven turbo codes with a larger number of outer codes yield higher minimum distances than turbo codes with random permutations.

In this paper we propose a new method to implement turbo codes over fading channels by extending the idea of turbo DPSK [3] to include turbo outer codes. An analytical tool has been developed to estimate the performance of extended turbo DPSK. A simulation study shows that extended turbo DPSK performs worse than BPSK modulated turbo codes with coherent detection. The energy inefficiency of exte...

The reliability of a data communication can be improved by using an automatic repeat request (ARQ) protocol, in which the receiver requests the retransmission of data packets when an error is detected in the received data. The hybrid ARQ (HARQ) scheme combines an ARQ and an error correction coding [1]. Turbo codes proposed by Berrou et al. in 1993 [2] show an error correction capability approac...

In this paper, we compare the performance of several different decoding strategies for concatenated codes based on a serial concatenation of a rectangular parity-check code (RPCC) with a turbo code. These concatenated codes are referred to as RPCC+turbo codes. RPCC+turbo codes have been shown to significantly outperform turbo codes in several scenarios [1],[2]. One particularly useful applicati...

Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes and convolutional Turbo codes are two of the most powerful error correcting codes that are widely used in modern communication systems. In a multi-mode baseband receiver, both LDPC and Turbo decoders may be required. However, the different decoding approaches for LDPC and Turbo codes usually lead to different hardware architectures. In this paper we propose...

Turbo equalizers have been shown to be successful in mitigating the effects of inter-symbol interference introduced by partial response modems and by dispersive channels for code rates of 1 2. In this contribution, we comparatively studied the performance of a range of binary phase-shift keying turbo equalizers employing block-turbo codes, namely Bose–Chaudhuri–Hocquenghen turbo codes, convolut...
