Abstract
In this paper, we propose an efficient iteration control method with low complexity for Turbo TCM(Turbo Trellis Coded Modulation) decoding which will be used fur power-limited environment. As the decoding approaches the performance limit of a given turbo code, any further iteration results in very little improvement. Therefore, it is important to devise an efficient criterion to stop the iteration process and prevent unnecessary computations and decoding delay. This paper presents an efficient algorithm for turbo TCM decoding that can greatly reduce the delay and iteration number. The proposed method use adaptive iteration number according to the criterion using the extrinsic information variance parameter in turbo TCM decoding process. The simulation results show that the proposed technique effectively can reduce the decoding delay and computation with very little performance degradation.
