Distributed turbo coded diversity for relay channel

Abstract
A novel coding technique is proposed for the quasi-static fading relay channel. The source broadcasts a recursive code to both relay and destination. The relay decodes, interleaves, and re-encodes the message prior to forwarding. Because the destination receives both codes in parallel, a distributed turbo code is embedded in the relay channel. Results indicate a combined diversity and coding gain, which is significant even for simple constituent codes.
