Popis: Turbo-Codes (TC) are a family of convolutional codes enabling Forward-Error-Correction (FEC) while approaching the theoretical limit of channel capacity predicted by Shannons theorem. One of the bottlenecks of a Turbo Encoder (TE) lies in the non-uniform interleaving stage. Interleaving algorithms require stalling the input vector bits before the bit rearrangement causing a delay in the overall process. This paper presents performance enhancement via a parallel algorithm for the interleaving stage of a Turbo Encoder application compliant with the DVB-RCS2 standard. The algorithm efficiently implements the interleaving operation while utilizing attributes of a given DSP. We will discuss and compare a serial model for the TE, with the presented parallel processed algorithm. Results showed a speed-up factor of up to 3.4 Total-Cycles, 4.8 Write and 7.3 Read.
