Turbo8 - Turbo code packet error rate (PER) performance

  • Interleaver length K=1504 data bits (188 bytes, MPEG packet)
  • Random (RAN), high-spread random (HSR), and dithered relative prime (DRP) interleavers; the DRP interleavers used M=8
  • DRP(n) indicates DRP interleaving and 1-in-n data puncturing
  • Code rates are R=1/3 (unpunctured) and R=1/2, 2/3, 4/5, and 8/9 (punctured)
  • 8-state Turbo code, BPSK signalling, enhanced max-log-APP decoding (scaled extrinsic), UMTS/3GPP polynomials (13,15)8, MLSE-based early stopping, maximum iterations=16
