Abstract
Turbo Codes are used in satellites and deep-space exploration as an innovative solution for error control codes. Radiation effects could add noise levels above the correction capability of the wireless communication modules, even though turbo codes were assuring low Bit Error Rates. SEU effects in the BER of a Turbo Decoder intended for space applications has been analyzed in detail, injecting millions of faults by means of using an Autonomous Emulation System.
