Abstract

The performance of the 'turbo' coding scheme is measured and an error floor is discovered. These residual errors are corrected with an outer BCH code. The complexity of the system is discussed, and for low data rates a realizable system operating at E/sub b//N/sub 0/ below 0.2 dB is presented.
