We show that the systematic component of a terminated recursive systematic convolutional encoder provides a built-in CRC (cyclic redundancy check), and we use this characteristic to improve the performance of the mean-sign-change (MSC) criterion. In addition, we show that by concatenating an external short CRC with the MSC criterion the error detection performance can be improved even further.

A new class of high-rate, low-complexity and soft-decodable codes, named product accumulate codes, is proposed. The code structure, properties, thresholds and performance are investigated and it is shown that these codes are capable of near-capacity performance.

It is shown for a linear code over F/sub 2/L, defined by a binary parity matrix H, that the minimum weight error vector e associated with a syndrome s can be computed in polynomial time if the nonzero elements of the error vector are linearly independent over F/sub 2/L.

Factor graphs may serve as a unifying framework for a wide variety of system models. Since the work of Wiberg (1996), there has been some awareness that factor graphs are also useful for tasks like equalization, channel estimation, synchronization, etc. In particular, factor graphs would allow the seamless integration of such sub-tasks into some "global" detection or estimation algorithm. A main issue in such applications is how to deal with continuous variables and with hybrid systems involving both discrete and continuous variables. These issues are addressed in the present paper, with a focus on equalization. It is shown that a variety of equalizing algorithms-some of them adaptive, all of them suitable for joint iterative decoding and equalization-fall right out of the general framework. Versions of most of these algorithms have previously been investigated by other authors using other notation, but some algorithms appear to be new.

Turbo codes (TC) with unequal error protection (UEP) are introduced. We consider a serial cascade of an array of repetition codes, an interleaver, and a TC. Such a coding scheme was introduced by B.J. Frey and D.J.C. MacKay (1999) as an irregular turbo code (ITC). A lower bound on the protection level of the ITC is presented. Additionally, simulation results are shown.

The linear vector-valued channel x/spl rarr/ /spl Phi//sub i/M/sub i/x+z is analyzed in the asymptotic regime as the dimensions of the matrices and vectors involved become large. The eigenvalue distribution of the channel's covariance matrix is given in terms of its Stieltjes transform. The channel gets more and more ill-conditioned the more factors appear in the product. The study is of interest for cellular radio channels with receiving/transmitting antenna arrays.

We take a first empirical step toward understanding the performance-complexity tradeoffs that have newly arisen since the advent of turbo codes. For a set of turbo and turbo-like codes, we study this tradeoff, measuring the degree to which the coder/decoder fails to attain the sphere packing bound.
