Turbo Coding, Turbo Equalisation and Space-Time Coding

Covering the full range of channel codes from the most conventional through to the most advanced, the second edition of <i>Turbo Coding, Turbo Equalisation and Space-Time Coding</i> is a self-contained reference on channel coding for wireless channels. The book commences with a historical perspective on the topic, which leads to two basic component codes, convolutional and block codes. It then moves on to turbo codes which exploit iterative decoding by using algorithms, such as the Maximum-A-Posteriori (MAP), Log-MAP and Soft Output Viterbi Algorithm (SOVA), comparing their... Next
