LTE Turbo decoder

Overview

This block is suitable for 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) applications compatible with the 3GPP Technical Specification. The LTE Release-8 Turbo code achieves near optimal error-correcting performance as specified in the LTE standard with information bit lengths ranging from 40 to 6144 bits and supporting LTE different coding rates.

Key Features

  • 8-bit precision for input LLR.
  • 13-bit precision for internal calculations.
  • Provides automatic normalization for internal calculations to avoid hardware overhead.
  • Supports full 3GPP-LTE and UMTS block size range is supported.
  • Supports rate 1/3 coded input.
  • Supports MAX-log-MAP with scaling factor.
  • 8 parallel-decoding units (with options of 4/2/1 parallel decoding units for smaller block length codes).
  • Sliding window algorithm for internal memory reduction.
  • Uses parallel internal interleaver/de-interleaver.
  • Payload throughput of up to 43.2 Mbit/s at 6 iterations (111 MHz on Xilinx-XC6VLX760-1FF1760).
  • Supports configurable maximum number of iterations and controllable termination for achieving greater throughput.

Applications

  • 3GPP-LTE.
  • UMTS compatible

Deliverables
