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 ...

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 paper describes an ASIP decoder template suitable for multi-standard Viterbi, Turbo and LDPC decoding. We show architecture fitness for WLAN, WiMAX and 3GPPLTE standards, although various other ...

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 ...

Recently, the concept of small femtocell base stations has been gaining popularity in mobile applications because of their advantages over traditional macrocells in terms of coverage, compatibility, ...
