Pseudo-random Puncturing: A Technique to Lower the Error Floor of Turbo Codes
Ioannis Chatzigeorgiou, Miguel R. D. Rodrigues, Ian J. Wassell +1
It has been observed that particular rate-1/2 partially systematic parallel concatenated convolutional codes (PCCCs) can achieve a lower error floor than that of their rate-1/3 par…
A Union Bound Approximation for Rapid Performance Evaluation of Punctured Turbo Codes
Ioannis Chatzigeorgiou, Miguel R. D. Rodrigues, Ian J. Wassell +1
In this paper, we present a simple technique to approximate the performance union bound of a punctured turbo code. The bound approximation exploits only those terms of the transfer…
Can Punctured Rate-1/2 Turbo Codes Achieve a Lower Error Floor than their Rate-1/3 Parent Codes?
I. Chatzigeorgiou, M. R. D. Rodrigues, I. J. Wassell +1
In this paper we concentrate on rate-1/3 systematic parallel concatenated convolutional codes and their rate-1/2 punctured child codes. Assuming maximum-likelihood decoding over an…
