Efficient Computation of EXIT Functions for Nonbinary Iterative Decoding
Efficient Computation of EXIT Functions for Nonbinary Iterative Decoding
The calculation of nonbinary extrinsic information transfer charts for the iterative decoding of concatenated index-based codes is addressed. We show that the extrinsic information at the output of a constituent a posteriori probability decoder can be calculated with very low complexity, where expensive histogram measurements are not required anymore. An example for turbo trellis-coded modulation demonstrates the capabilities of the proposed approach.

Abstract
The calculation of nonbinary extrinsic information transfer charts for the iterative decoding of concatenated index-based codes is addressed. We show that the extrinsic information at the output of a constituent a posteriori probability decoder can be calculated with very low complexity, where expensive histogram measurements are not required anymore. An example for turbo trellis-coded modulation demonstrates the capabilities of the proposed approach.
