Complete FEC Encoder Solution compliant to LTE/ LTE A Specification

The Lekha IP – 3GPP LTE FEC Encoder IP Core V1.0 addresses the implementation of the FEC building blocks compliant to 3GPP TS 36.212 V 10.5.0. Specifically, the IP core offers an efficient, easy to customize and reliable implementation of the following blocks. Optimization techniques have been used to achieve a reduced cycle count in the design of key building blocks thus making it amenable to parallel implementation for increased data rate requirements of the order of few gigabits as demanded by futuristic implementations.

• Controlled selection of Turbo or Convolution path (based on data blocks input or control data input)
• Rate 1/3 tail biting Convolution encoder
• Rate 1/3 turbo encoder
• Rate matching for Turbo coded transport channels
• Rate matching for Convolution coded transport channels and control information
• Bit collection, selection and transmission.
• LTE/ LTE Advanced (LTE A) Complaint.
• Implements Turbo encoder as defined in Section 5.1.3.2 of the specification[1].
• Configurable Interleaver block sizes - Supports all block sizes i.e., K=40 – 6144 as defined in [1] for Turbo and small block lengths (Ex: up to 64) for Convolution.
• Default code rate achieved is 1/3 with rate matching for other code rates supported.
• Easy interface definition.
