This letter presents an iterative decoding method for Reed-Solomon (RS) codes. The proposed algorithm is a stochastic shifting based iterative decodin...

Hybrid decoding means to combine different iterative decoding algorithms with the aim of improving error performance or decoding complexity. In this w...

In this letter, we propose and compare some new rate-compatible serially concatenated convolutional code (SCCC) families. To obtain them, inner coded...

We present a generalized extrinsic information transfer characteristics of the iterative turbo decoding algorithm. By using this tool, we obtain a low...

This work proposes a new adaptive approach to the soft decision decoding of the so-called combined Chase-GMD class of algorithms (CGA). A reliability...
