ABSTRACT:
In a concatenated code data, correctly decoded code words from a block decoder is utilized to improve the performance of the convolutional decoder. A code word can sometimes be correctly decoded prior to receipt of all the symbols for the code word. Early decoding of the code word allows for the correct recreation of the entire code word, even the symbols which have not yet been received. The entire corrected code word is used by the convolutional decoder to eliminate branches the trellis, thus improving decoding of prior data bits and future data bits in the trellis. The chain back distance of the convolutional decoder can also be made shorter based on the knowledge that some of the received code words have been correctly decoded. Finally, the parity symbols which have not yet been received for the correctly decoded code word can be eliminated from transmission to improve the overall transmission rate.
