ABSTRACT:
A stopping rule for Turbo decoding that is applied for both good and bad code blocks is disclosed. If the iteration either converges or diverges, decoding is terminated. In an alternative embodiment, the result of the stopping rule testing may be used for hybrid automatic repeat-request (HARQ) acknowledgement generation: if the iteration converges, an acknowledgment (ACK) is generated and if the iteration diverges, a negative acknowledgement (NACK) is generated. Optionally, the maximum number of decoding iterations may be dynamically selected based on modulation and coding scheme (MCS) levels.
