Abstract :
The requirement for accurate channel estimation exists for a number of communications systems. The method described in this paper was specifically designed for turbo code systems which must have knowledge of the channel to operate. However, this method is applicable to any system using a code that may be represented by a trellis structure. It purely digital solution that is ideally suited for implementation on a DSP device
