Abstract

A method and system of relaying data are provided. The data is encoded into a turbo codeword by using a convolutional turbo code encoder, and the turbo codeword is transmitted from a source to a relay and a destination after puncturing by a first puncturing operation. The first punctured turbo codeword which is received in the relay is de-punctured and regenerated in a decoding operation and the regenerated turbo codeword is transmitted from the relay to the destination in punctured form after puncturing by a second puncturing operation. The punctured turbo codewords received from the source and the relay by the destination are totaled together as a totaled single turbo codeword and the totaled single turbo codeword is completely decoded to recover the data.
