This article focuses on techniques to decode UMTS Turbo codes efficiently using a general purpose DSP processor with MAP (maximum a posterior) decoding algorithm. Since MAP decoding is costly both in ...

Communication-system designers have always had to deal with trade-offs among data reliability, efficient use of available spectrum, data throughput, and cost. Error-correction coding (ECC) is one of ...

Turbo decoding stands as a pivotal technique in modern communications, enabling near-capacity error correction through iterative decoding processes. By combining ...

Convolutional codes represent a cornerstone in modern communications, offering a method for continuously encoding data streams to mitigate errors due to interference and noise. These codes operate by ...
