Abstract:In this paper, we propose a simplified Log-MAP algorithm that is equivalent to the Log-MAP algorithm in terms of the bit-error-rate (BER) performance, but without its implementation difficulties. The proposed algorithm is based on a linear approximation of the correction function in the Log-MAP algorithm over different signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regions. This approximation is simple to implement by avoiding the number of complicated operations. Simulation results demonstrate that this simplified algorithm can… Show more
