—In this paper, we will describe the close connection between the now celebrated iterative turbo decoding algorithm of Berrou et al. and an algorithm that has been well known in ...

Abstract—We present a unified graphical model framework for describing compound codes and deriving iterative decoding algorithms. After reviewing a variety of graphical models (...
—The performance and design of turbo codes using coherent BPSK signaling on the Rayleigh fading channel is considered. In low signal-to-noise regions, performance analysis uses s...
Abstract—The excellent bit error rate performance of new iterative decoding algorithms (e.g., turbodecoding) is achieved at the expense of a computationally burdensome decoding p...
—We apply two reduced-computation variants of the BCJR algorithm to the decoding of serial and parallel concatenated convolutional codes. One computes its recursions at only M st...
