Turbo codes and the iterative algorithm for decoding them sparked a new era in the theory
and practice of error control codes. Turbo equalization followed as a natural extension to this …

A number of important advances have been made in the area of joint equalization and
decoding of data transmitted over intersymbol interference (ISI) channels. Turbo …

We study the turbo equalization approach to coded data transmission over channels with
intersymbol interference. In the original system invented by Douillard et al.(1995), the data …

Turbo equalization is an iterative equalization and decoding technique that can achieve
equally impressive performance gains for communication systems that send digital data over …

Wireless Communications over MIMO Channels: Applications to CDMA and Multiple
Antenna Systems covers both, state-of-the-art channel coding concepts and CDMA and …

We study the limits of performance of Gallager codes (low-density parity-check (LDPC)
codes) over binary linear intersymbol interference (ISI) channels with additive white …

In this article, we present two versions of a simplified maximum a posteriori decoding
algorithm. The algorithms work in a sliding window form, like the Viterbi algorithm, and can …

Soft‐input soft‐output building blocks (modules) are presented to construct and iteratively
decode in a distributed fashion code networks, a new çoncept that includes, and …

The implementation and performance of a turbo/MAP decoder are described. A serial block
MAP decoder operating in the logarithm domain is used to obtain a very‐high‐performance …

Maximum and near-maximum likelihood sequence detectors in signal-dependent noise are
discussed. It is shown that the linear prediction viewpoint allows a very simple derivation of …
