Overview

Turbo coding is an advanced error correction technique widely used in the communications industry. Turbo encoders and decoders are key elements in today's communication systems to achieve the best possible data reception with least possible errors. The basis of turbo coding is to introduce redundancy in the data to be transmitted through a channel. The redundant data helps to recover original data from the received data.

Lattice's Turbo Encoder IP Core is compliant with three different standards: 3GPP, 3GPP2, and CCSDS. The 3GPP and 3GPP2 standards are widely used in WCDMA and MC-CDMA applications while CCSDS is most commonly found in telemetry and space communications. Each one of these encoders is a separate entity as the interleaver and control logic for each encoder is completely different.

Lattice's Turbo Encoder core is created in conjunction with the Turbo Decoder core to provide users with a state of the art error correction technique.

Practical Considerations of LDPC Decoder Design in Communications Systems

This paper covers some practical aspects of designing the LDPC decoder starting from comparison between different techniques, different decoders parameters or standards, the effect of those parameters on the LDPC performance, also it discusses the algorithm selection process, and floating point implementation process.

Audio Transport in DisplayPort VIP

DisplayPort uses Secondary Data Packets (SDPs), which are transported over the Main-Link that are not main video stream data. This allows it to carry audio and video simultaneously. The VIP supports audio transmission both in the original mode as defined in the specification as well as just as any other SDP being transmitted.
