Turbo Codes: Interleavers Types |
One of the most important and critical component in achieving good performances with iterative decoding of Turbo codes is the choice of the interleaver. Indeed the interleaver is a key component because it allows the decoded extrinsic information to be nearly independent of the observed data in the decoder. This publication describes the structure of different types of interleavers and their behaviour thanks to a turbo encoder simulator developed by the author himself.
