  • Abstract:
  • Turbo codes are widely used in modern communication systems due to their strong error correction capability, which significantly improves data reliability over noisy channels. This work focuses on the design and implementation of an efficient Turbo encoder and decoder for real-time error correction in communication systems. The encoder consists of two Recursive Systematic Convolutional (RSC) encoders combined with a pseudorandom interleaver to enhance robustness against burst errors. On the decoding side, the architecture employs Soft-Input Soft-Output (SISO) decoders with interleavers and de-interleavers, utilizing the Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) algorithm. The MAP-based approach reduces the number of decoding iterations, leading to improved decoding speed and lower computational complexity while maintaining high error correction performance. The proposed design is suitable for high-speed communication applications such as wireless networks and data transmission systems.
