In this paper, the network performance of a turbo coded optical code division multiple access (CDMA) system with cross-layer, which is between physical and network layers, concept is analyzed and simulated. We consider physical and MAC layers in a cross-layer concept. An intensity-modulated/direct-detection (IM/DD) optical system employing pulse position modulation (PPM) for satellite broadcasting communications is considered. In order to increase the system performance, turbo codes composed of parallel concatenated convolutional codes (PCCCs) is utilized. The network performance is evaluated in terms of bit error probability (BEP). From the simulation results, it is demonstrated that turbo coding offers considerable coding gain with reasonable encoding and decoding complexity. Also, it is confirmed that the performance of such an optical CDMA network can be substantially improved by increasing the interleaver length and the number of iterations in the decoding process. The results of this paper can be applied to implement the satellite broadcasting communications.

In recent years LEO(Low Earth Orbit) satellite communication systems have gained a lot of interest as high speed multimedia services by satellite are about to be provided. It is mandatory to use very efficient ECC(Error Correcting Code) to support high speed multimedia services over LEO satellite channel. Turbo codes developed by Berrou et al. in 1993 have been actively researched since it can achieve a performance close to the Shannon limit. In this paper, a LEO satellite channel model is adopted and the fading characteristics of LEO satellite channel are analyzed for the change of elevation angle in various propagation environments. The performance of turbo code is analyzed and compared to that of conventional convolutional code using the satellite channel model. In the simulation results using the Globalstar orbit constellations, performance of turbo codes shows 1.0~2.0dB coding gain compared to that of convolutional codes over all elevation angle and propagation environment ranges we have investigated. The performance difference resulting from the change of elevation angle in various propagation environments and the performance of different ECC are analyzed in detail, so that the results can be applied to choose an appropriate ECC scheme for various system environment.

In this paper, we simulate and analyze performance of iterative coding scheme, double binary turbo code, for high speed power line communication (PLC) systems. PLC system has hostile environment for high speed data transmission, so error correction method is necessary to compensate effects of PLC channel. We employ the PLC model proposed by M. Zimmerman and Middleton Class A interference model, and system performance is evaluated in terms of bit error rate (BER). From the simulation results, we confirm double binary turbo code provides considerable coding gains to PLC system and BER performance is significantly improved as the number of iteration increase. It is also confirmed that BER performance increases as code rate is lager, while it decreases as the code rate is smaller.

For perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) channels, noise-predictive maximum likelihood (NPML) detection method has been used. But, it is hard to expect improving the performance when the bit density is increased. Hence, we exploit the coding methods which has good performance. In this paper, we show the performance of the recursive systematic convolutional (RSC) codes with turbo-equalization method with different channel bit densities. The noise model is 80% jitter noise and 20% AWGN.

A novel turbo coded modulation scheme, called turbo-APPM, for deep space optical communications is constructed. The constructed turbo-APPM is a serial concatenations of turbo codes, an accumulator and a pulse position modulation (PPM), where turbo codes act as an outer code while the accumulator and the PPM act together as an inner code. The generator polynomial and the puncturing rule for generating turbo codes are chosen to show the low bit error rate. At the receiver, the joint decoding is performed by exchanging soft information iteratively between the inner decoder and the outer decoder. In the outer decoder, a local iterative decoding for turbo codes is conducted before transferring soft information to the inner decoder. Poisson distribution is used to model the deep space optical channel. It is shown by simulations that the constructed turbo-APPM provides coding gains over all previously proposed schemes such as LDPC-APPM, RS-PPM and SCPPM.

In this paper, performance of a turbo-coded OFDM system is analyzed and simulated in a power line communication channel. Since the power line communication system typically operates in a hostile environment, turbo code has been employed to enhance reliability of transmitted data. The performance is evaluated in terms of bit error probability. As turbo decoding algorithms, MAP (maximum a posteriori), Max-Log-MAP, and SOVA (soft decision Viterbi output) algorithms are chosen and their performances are compared. From simulation results, it is demonstrated that Max-Log-MAP algorithm is promising in terms of performance and complexity. It is shown that performance is substantially improved by increasing the number of iterations and interleaver length of a turbo encoder. The results in this paper can be applied to OFDM-based high-speed power line communication systems.

In this paper, we have analyzed transmission time for WAP over CDMA using turbo code scheme. In order for SAR to improve the transfer capability, the transmission of messages have been simulated using a fragmentation that begins with the total package and incremental fragmentation for each layer using the WTP to define tile resultant packet size and the level of fragmentation for each proceeding layer. This turbo code scheme decreases transmission lime of RLP baseband packets. From the results, we arc able to obtain packet transmission time and optimal WTP packet size for WAP over CDMA in a Rician fading channel.

Turbo code, a kind of channel coding technique, has ben used in the field of digital mobile communication system if the number of iterations is increased in the several channel environments, my further iteration results in very little improvement, and requires much delay and computation in proportion to the number of iterations. In this paper, it proposes an efficient stopping rules for the iteration process in turbo decoding. By using absolute mean values for the LLR difference values between the first and second decoder in the present decoding process, the proposed algorithm can largely reduce the average number of iterations without BER performance degradation in all SNR regions. As a result of simulation, the average number of iterations of proposed algorithm is reduced by about $18.25%{\sim}20.58%$ compared to SDR algerian in the lower SNR region, and is reduced by about $22.96%{\sim}28.74%$ compared to method using variance values of extrinsic information in the upper SNR region.

Turbo code, a kind of error correction coding technique, has been used in the field of digital mobile communication system. As the number of iterations increases, it can achieves remarkable BER performance over AWGN channel environment. However, if the number of iterations Is increases in the several channel environments, any further iteration results in very little improvement, and requires much delay and computation in proportion to the number of iterations. To solve this problems, it is necessary to device an efficient criterion to stop the iteration process and prevent unnecessary delay and computation. In this paper, it proposes an efficient and simple criterion for stopping the iteration process in turbo decoding. By using variance values of noise derived from mean values of LLR in turbo decoder, the proposed algorithm can largely reduce the computation and average number of iterations without BER performance degradation. As a result of simulations, the computation of the proposed algorithm is reduced by about $66{\sim}80%$ compared to conventional algorithm. The average number of iterations is reduced by about $13.99%{\sim}15.74%$ compared to CE algorithm and about $17.88%{\sim}18.59%$ compared to SCR algorithm.
