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

This paper propose an improved method called the modified warm-up-free parallel window(PW) MAP decoding schemes to implement highly-parallel Turbo decoder architecture based on the QPP(Quadratic ...

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 ...

San Francisco — Bell Labs has upped the stakes in the drive towards high data rate chips for third generation (3G) devices, describing at the International Solid State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) here ...

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 ...

As the wireless industry transitions from a high-growth phase to a more mature state, so costs have risen across the entire wireless infrastructure, including the base­station. Next-generation ...
