Convergence behavior of iteratively decoded parallel concatenated codes
Abstract
Mutual information transfer characteristics of soft in/soft out decoders are proposed as a tool to better understand the convergence behavior of iterative decoding schemes. The exchange of extrinsic information is visualized as a decoding trajectory in the extrinsic information transfer chart (EXIT chart). This allows the prediction of turbo cliff position and bit error rate after an arbitrary number of iterations. The influence of code memory, code polynomials as well as different constituent codes on the convergence behavior is studied for parallel concatenated codes. A code search based on the EXIT chart technique has been performed yielding new recursive systematic convolutional constituent codes exhibiting turbo cliffs at lower signal-to-noise ratios than attainable by previously known constituent codes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
