VLSI architectural design tradeoffs for sliding-window log-MAP decoders.

VLSI architectural design tradeoffs for sliding-window log-MAP decoders.

Turbo codes have received tremendous attention and have commenced their practical applications due to their excellent error-correcting capability. Investigation of efficient iterative decoder realizations is of particular interest because the underlying soft-input soft-output decoding algorithms usu...
