Abstract

A Turbo decoder and method for decoding a double-binary circular recursive systematic convolutional (DBCRSC) encoded signal with unknown initial and final states executes iterations of forward and backward recursion on a payload block of the DBCRSC encoded signal and a padded block using an estimated forward state metric (FSM) and an estimated backward state metric (BSM), which are updated at one or more iterations.
