getTurboIOIndices

Compute output indices for turbo coding

collapse all in page

    Syntax

    indices=getTurboIOIndices(blklen,N,mlen)
    indices=getTurboIOIndices(blklen,N,mlen,'LTE')

    Description

    Use getTurboIOIndices to generate the output indices for the comm.TurboEncoder and input indices for the comm.TurboDecoder and System objects.

    indices=getTurboIOIndices(blklen,N,mlen) computes the indices for a given input block length, blklen, number of output streams, N, and the memory length, mlen, relative to the fully encoded output. In this mode, the second interleaved, systematic bit-stream is punctured. N and mlen correspond to the constituent coder configuration for the comm.TurboEncoder and comm.TurboDecoder System objects.

    example

    indices=getTurboIOIndices(blklen,N,mlen,'LTE') computes LTE-like output indices as specified by TS 36.212. For LTE, the second systematic bit-stream is punctured and the tail bits are reordered.

    Create output indices for use with a turbo encoder System object™.

    Initialize input parameters for a constituent turbo encoder configuration having 2 streams, 3 registers and a block length of 64. Create the output indices vector. Display the number of tail bits and the values of the tail bits.

    blklen = 64; % Block length
N = 2;       % Number of streams
mlen = 3;    % Number of registers
firsttailbit = blklen * (2*N - 1) + 1;
outindices = getTurboIOIndices(blklen,N,mlen);
numtailbits = length(outindices(firsttailbit:end)')
    numtailbits = 9

    tailbits = outindices(firsttailbit:end)'
    tailbits = 1×9

    For comparison, keep the same input settings for the block length, number of streams, and number of registers, but create a set of LTE-like output indices vector by adding 'LTE' as the fourth input argument.

    outindices = getTurboIOIndices(blklen,N,mlen,'LTE');

    Display the number of tail bits and the values of the tail bits. The LTE-like output indices have ordering as specified in TS 36.212 and include tail bits for all output streams. 

    numtailbitsLTE = length(outindices(firsttailbit:end)')
    numtailbitsLTE = 12

    tailbitsLTE = outindices(firsttailbit:end)'
    tailbitsLTE = 1×12
