Performance Comparison and Analysis of Serial Concatenated Convolutional Codes
In this paper, the performance of three types of serial
concatenated convolutional codes (SCCC) is compared and analyzed
in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. In Type I, only the
parity bits of outer encoder are passed to inner encoder. In Type II and
Type III, both the information bits and the parity bits of outer encoder
are transferred to inner encoder. As results of simulation, Type I shows
the best bit error rate (BER) performance at low signal-to-noise ratio
(SNR). On the other hand, Type III shows the best BER performance
at high SNR in AWGN channel. The simulation results are analyzed
using the distance spectrum.
