Title
Code-Aided Turbo Synchronization
Abstract
ABSTRACT | The introduction,of turbo and low-density paritycheck,(LDPC) codes,with iterative decoding,that almost,attain Shannon,capacity challenges,the synchronization,subsystems,of a data modem.,Fast and accurate,signal synchronization,has to be performed,at a much lower value of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) than,in previous,less efficiently coded,systems.,The solution,to this issue is developing,specific synchronization techniques,that take advantage,of the presence,of the channel code,and,of the iterative nature,of decoding:,the so-called turbo-synchronization algorithms. The aim of this paper,within this special issue devoted,to the turbo principle is twofold: on the one hand, it shows how the many turbo-synchronization algorithms,that have,already appeared,in the literature can be cast into a simple and rigorous theoretical framework.,On the other hand, it shows the application of such techniques in a few simple cases, and evaluates improvement that can be obtained from them, especially in the low-SNR regime.
