2015

Consultative Committee for Space Data System (CCSDS) recommended a common standard for space telemetry channel coding systems. Turbo codes represent a major paradigm shift in the approach to coding systems for deep space communications. For decoding purpose, memory optimized iterative Max-log-MAP algorithm is used which is less complex and having less memory requirements. In this paper, the performance of turbo codes namely Bit Error Rate (BER) is analyzed for different block lengths and code rates. The complete analysis is done for AWGN channel, since AWGN channel is to be assumed for deep space applications. Simulations of turbo encoder and decoder are done using C and MATLAB.

To deal with n numbers of user simultaneously and error free communication with maximum utilization of limited spectrum, BER(bit error rate) improvement is an open challenge for communication engineers. In this paper work is an attempt to implement such an error control code Turbo code in which BER improve by using various efficient encoding and decoding designs. Turbo code provides modest decoding complexity for large block length and better bit error rate as compared to other code.

The decoding algorithm such as Viterbi algoritm,MAP(maximum a posterior),BCJR (bahl, cocke, jelinek and raviv)can be used .

A Parallel turbo encoder-decoder scheme

The field of forward error correction was greatly influenced by the discovery of turbo codes. This invention led to a great improvement in terms of Bit-Error-Rate (BER). Various schemes have been proposed and are based either on parallel or serial designs of concatenated decoders. These decoders are iterative using SOVA (soft output viterbi) or MAP (maximum a posteriori) algorithms. They introduce superior recovery functions of data which have been transmitted through noisy environments. Actually, these turbo schemes compared to convolutional codes achieve better data recovery with the increase of the constraint length. Considering all previous principles, we designed a new parallel turbo encoder-decoder system. This system was compared to already existing serial and parallel turbo coding schemes and to a convolutional encoder. Performance level was verified through simulations including Additive White Guassian noise. BER analysis exhibited better results compared to all other designs for various numbers of iterations.

A Survey Paper on Different Turbo Decoders and Their Comparison

In order to have reliable communication, channel coding is often employed. Turbo code as a powerful coding technique has been widely studied and used in communication systems. Turbo coding is an advanced forward error c o r r e c t i o n a l g o r i t h m . U l t i m a t e Performance that approaches the Shannon limit requires a new approach using iteratively run soft in/soft out (SISO) decoders called turbo decoders. However, the implementation of various Turbo Decoders suffers from a large delay and high power consumption. For this reason, they are not suitable for many applications like mobile communication systems. In this paper, a comparative study has been made and various decoding algorithm used in SISO Turbo Decoders have been analyzed viz. MAP, Log-MAP, Max-Log-MAP and SOVA, to overcome this drawback. This paper examines the principles of turbo coding and decoding algorithms and compare their BER performance.

Turbo encoder and decoder chip design and FPGA device analysis for communication system

International Journal of Reconfigurable and Embedded Systems (IJRES), 2023

Turbo codes are error-correcting codes with performance that is close to the Shannon theoretical limit (SHA). The motivation for using turbo codes is that the codes are an appealing mix of a random appearance on the channel and a physically realizable decoding structure. The communication systems have the problem of latency, fast switching, and reliable data transfer. The objective of the research paper is to design and turbo encoder and decoder hardware chip and analyze its performance. Two convolutional codes are concatenated concurrently and detached by an interleaver or permuter in the turbo encoder. The expected data from the channel is interpreted iteratively using the two related decoders. The soft (probabilistic) data about an individual bit of the decoded structure is passed in each cycle from one elementary decoder to the next, and this information is updated regularly. The performance of the chip is also verified using the maximum a posteriori (MAP) method in the decoder chip. The performance of field-programmable gate array (FPGA) hardware is evaluated using hardware and timing parameters extracted from Xilinx ISE 14.7. The parallel concatenation offers a better global rate for the same component code performance, and reduced delay, low hardware complexity, and higher frequency support.
