Stability analysis of non-recursive parallel concatenated real number codes
J. Vieira · 2005
Real number codes can be derived from most existing GF error correcting codes. This approach provides a fresh view on the fields of error correcting codes and signal processing. In this article we study the parallel concatenated codes (PCC), also known as ”Turbo Codes” (TC) on the real number field. We derive a known generalization of the coding matrix and a non-iterative decoding algorithm. We also present some simulation results comparing the decoding stability of real number Bose, Chaudhury and Hocquenghem (BCH) codes with real number PCC.
