Service Adaptable 3G Turbo Decoder for Indoor/Low Range Outdoor Environment Costas CHAIKALIS, Nicholas S. SAMARAS Department of Informatics Telecommunications, TEI of Larissa, Larissa, Greece Email : kchaikalis@teilar.gr Received July 28, 2009; revised September 6, 2009; accepted October 7, 2009 Abstract For the well-known 3G mobile communications standard UMTS, four different service classes have been specified. Considering two turbo decoding algorithms, like SOVA and log-MAP, it would be desirable to use an efficient turbo decoder. In this paper this decoder is shown to adapt dynamically to different service sce- narios, considering parameters like performance and complexity for indoor/low range outdoor operating en- vironment. The scenarios show that for streaming service class real-time class applications the proposed de- coding algorithm depends on data rate; for the majority of scenarios SOVA is proposed, whereas log-MAP is optimal for increased data rates and medium-sized frames. On the other hand, conversational service class real-time applications cannot be established. For the majority of non real-time applications (interactive and background service classes) either algorithm can be used, while log-MAP is proposed for medium data rates and frame lengths.
