In this letter, we propose and compare some new rate-compatible serially concatenated convolutional code (SCCC) families. To obtain them, inner coded...

We present a generalized extrinsic information transfer characteristics of the iterative turbo decoding algorithm. By using this tool, we obtain a low...

This work proposes a new adaptive approach to the soft decision decoding of the so-called combined Chase-GMD class of algorithms (CGA). A reliability...

A new expression is derived for the exact average symbol error probability for optimum combining with M-ary phase-shift keying. The expression adds to...

We show that the Internet topology at the autonomous system (AS) level has a rich-club phenomenon. The rich nodes, which are a small number of nodes w...
