A new class of convolutional codes called turbo-codes, whose performances in terms of bit error rate (BER) are close to the Shannon limit, is discussed. The turbo-code encoder i...
A means to adapt the classical architecture of a Viterbi decoder to make it able to provide soft (weighted) decisions is presented. After a theoretical justification of the prop...
This paper presents a new family of convolutional codes, nicknamed turbo-codes, built from a particular concatenation of two recursive systematic codes, linked together by nonun...
