Understanding turbo codes: A signal processing study
In this paper, we study turbo codes from the digital signal processing point of view by defining turbo codes over the complex field. It is known that iterative decoding and interleaving between concatenated parallel codes are two key elements that make turbo codes perform significantly better than the conventional error control codes.

Exploring Parallel Processing Levels for Convolutional Turbo Decoding [PDF]
In forward error correction, convolutional turbo codes were introduced to increase error correction capability approaching the Shannon bound. Decoding of these codes, however, is an iterative process requiring high computation rate and latency. Thus, in order to achieve high throughput and to reduce latency, crucial in emerging digital communication ...

The k-Nearest Neighbour Join: Turbo Charging the KDD Process [PDF]
The similarity join has become an important database primitive for supporting similarity searches and data mining. A similarity join combines two sets of complex objects such that the result contains all pairs of similar objects. Two types of the similarity join are well-known, the distance range join, in which the user defines a distance threshold for

MICELAB: Spatial processing of mouse movement in Turbo Pascal [PDF]
Pointing tasks with a mouse are very useful in psychological experiments concerned with a subject’s ability to track a visual object or to move to a target location (e.g., to find a word in text). Such tasks are quite easily performed by subjects, and numerous variables may be obtained from the mouse movement. In this article we describe a set of Turbo

Illuminating the Mechanism of Iterative Turbo Code Decoding Process [PDF]
The most exciting and potentially important development in coding theory in recent years has been the dramatic announcement of “Turbo codes”. Turbo codes are constructed by applying two or more component codes to different interleaved versions of the same information sequence.

Analysis of the Convergence Process by EXIT Charts for Parallel Implementations of Turbo Decoders [PDF]
Iterative process is a general principle in decoding powerful FEC codes such as turbo codes. However, the mutual information exchange during the iterative process is not easy to analyze and to describe. A useful technique to help the designer is the EXtrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT) chart.

Array processing for simplified turbo decoding of interleaved space-time codes [PDF]
Space-time coded architectures that deploy multiple transmit-receive antennas with interleaved space-time codes are considered. Decoding is based on the iterative concatenation of a demapping stage with a decoding stage. We describe several simplified demapping algorithms based on array processing methods that can include either soft or hard feedback ...

Subblock Processing for Frequency-Domain Turbo Equalization under Fast Fading Environments [PDF]
Frequency-domain equalization (FDE) has been studied for suppressing inter-symbol interference (ISI) due to frequency selective fading in single carrier systems. When a high-mobility terminal is assumed in the system, channel transition within an FDE block cannot be ignored.
