Application-oriented concatenation code scheme with high throughput and low decoding latency

A class of serial concatenated ordinary (non-punctured) convolutional (SCOC) codes is introduced. Simulation results over additive white Guassian noise channels show that the SCOC codes have comparable performance as 3GPP turbo codes and LDPC codes, while with overall decoding complexity smaller than that of LDPC codes and 3GPP turbo codes.
