This paper presents low latency and/or computation algorithms of iterative codes of turbo codes, turbo product codes and low density parity check codes for use in wireless broadband communication systems. Due to high coding complexity of iterative codes, this paper focus on lower complexity and/or latency algorithms that are easily implementable in hardware and further accelerate the decoding speed.

This paper presents an efficient carrier recovery algorithm combined with a turbo-coding technique in a mobile communication system. By using a block turbo code made up of independently decodable block codes, we can efficiently recover the fast time-varying carrier phase as well as correct channel errors. Our simulation results reveal that the proposed scheme can accommodate mobiles with high speed, and at the same time can reduce the number of iterations to lock the phase.

In this thesis we propose symbol-based decoding for turbo codes which is used SOVA as a decoding algorithm. The proposed turbo codes that is interleaved on symbol-by-symbol basis and inputted as n-bit symbols to the decoder. This method makes that the stages of the original trellis are merged together and the trellis depth is reduced by 1/n. We research turbo codes with symbol size n=2 in this paper and its performance.

In this paper, a butterfly Log-MAP decoding algorithm for turbo code is proposed. Different from the conventional turbo decoder, we derived a generalized formula to calculate the log-likelihood ratio (LLR) and drew a modified butterfly states diagram in 8-states systematic turbo coded system. By comparing the complexity of conventional implementations, the proposed algorithm can efficiently reduce both the computations and work units without bit error ratio (BER) performance degradation.

Turbo codes that have attracted a great attention in recent years are applied to wireless communication networks that require variable quality of service and transmit over unknown fading channel. A MAP decoder is the constituent of turbo decoder. In this paper, we propose a high speed architecture of MAP decoder and a new normalization technique, In conclusion, this paper presents the efficient implementation of serial block MAP decoder for turbo codes.

A high-efficiency turbo steam compressor has been successfully developed for the MVR desalination system, first one in Korea. The state-of-the-art design methods using real gas properties were applied to get all the aerodynamic design results. Bull and pinion gear trains, tilting-pad bearings and investment cast impellers were developed also to be integrated into the integral gear-driven turbo steam compressor. System tests show highly efficient performance.

In this paper we propose a new turbo coded T-DMB system that replaces the existing RS code, convolutional interleaver and RCPC code by a turbo code without altering the puncturing procedure and puncturing vectors defined in the standard T-DMB system for compatibility. Simulation results show that the new turbo coded system yields considerable performance gain after just 2 iterations.

The durability test of turbo-blower for PEM fuel cell is very important process of BOP development. It is a major barrier to the commercialization of these systems for stationary and transportation power applications. Commercial viability depends on improving the durability of the air supply system to increase the reliability and to reduce the lifetime cost. In this study, turbo-blower supported by oil-free bearing is introduced as the air supply system used by 80kW proton exchange membrane fuel systems. The turbo-blower is a turbo machine which operates at high speed, so air foil bearings suit their purpose as bearing elements. The impeller of blower was adopted mixed type of centrifugal and axial. So, it has several advantages for variable operating condition. The turbo-blower test results show maximum parasitic power levels below 1.67kW with the 30,000 rpm rotating speed, the flow rate of air has maximum 163SCFM(@PR1.1). For proper application of FCV, these have to durability test. This paper describes the experiment for confirming endurance and stability of the turbo-blower for 500 hours.

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.

In this work, nucleate pool boiling heat transfer coefficients(HTCs) of 5 refrigerants of differing vapor pressure are measured on horizontal low fin and Turbo-B square surfaces of 9.53 mm length. Tested refrigerants are R32, R22, R134a, R152a and R245fa and HTCs are taken from 10 $kW/m^2$ to critical heat fluxes for all refrigerant at $7^{\circ}C$. Wall and fluid temperatures are measured directly by thermocouples located underneath the test surface and in the liquid pool. Test results show that Critical heat fluxes(CHFs) of all enhanced surfaces are greatly improved as compared to that of a plain surface in all tested refrigerants. CHFs of all refrigerants on the 26 fpi low fin surface are increased up to 240% as compared to that of the plain surface. HTCs on both low fin and Turbo-B surfaces increase with heat flux. After certain heat flux, however, they decrease. CHFs of the Turbo-B enhanced surface are lower than that of the 26 fpi low fin surface. This phenomenon is due to the difference in surface structure of the low fin and Turbo-B surface.
