A Novel Efficient Stopping Criterion for Turbo Codes

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper proposes a novel stopping criterion based on the HDA stopping criterion. To devise the criterion, we consider both the HDA criterion and the mean of the absolute values of the log-likelihood ratios (LLR) at the output of the component decoders over each frame together. The new criterion saves more than 0.5 iteration ,in the low signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) situation,with a negligible degradation of the error performance.
