Mismatch and Estimation of SNR in the Iterative Decoding of Turbo Decoding

Chuan Zou · 2002

Based on analyzed the sensitivity of the Turbo decoder performance to misestimate the signaltonoise ratio of channel (SNR),we verified the directly relationship between the iterative decoding of Turbo decoding and esstimation of SNR.This paper presented a method of selfadaptive estimating SNR of BCJR decoding algorithm of Turbo code.The selfadaptive SNR estimator has a good tracking performance with a simpler calculation.The resulte of Matlab simulation shows that the selfadaptive SNR estimator has excellence convergence for low SNR and performace will be better on a fading channel.
