    Abstract: Detecting, avoiding and/or correcting problematic puncturing patterns in parity bit streams used when implementing punctured Turbo codes is achieved without having to avoid desirable code rates. This enables identification/avoidance of regions of relatively poor Turbo code performance. Forward error correction comprising Turbo coding and puncturing achieves a smooth functional relationship between any measure of performance and the effective coding rate resulting from combining the lower rate code generated by the Turbo encoder (600) with puncturing of the parity bits. In one embodiment, methods to correct/avoid degradations due to Turbo coding are implemented by puncturing interactions when two or more stages of rate matching (610, 620) are employed.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for estimating attributes of a received signal that includes a plurality of transmitted signals are provided. The amplitude of the received signal is estimated by performing a method of demodulation based on known signal information. The amplitude of an M-ary quadrature amplitude modulated signal is estimated based upon known or ascertainable phase information regarding a plurality of transmitted symbols. The amplitude of a q-ary amplitude shift keyeing signal is estimated based upon known or ascertainable magnitude information regarding a plurality of transmitted symbols. Statistical information is also used for amplitude estimation.
