Abstract :
Although current turbo equalization/decoding algorithms provide superior performance, their implementation complexity is significantly high. Iterative methods make the decoding process even slower. No simple turbo equalization method exists which can work with block turbo decoding. Therefore, this paper proposes a new block turbo equalization algorithm and its corresponding VLSI architecture which requires a very low complexity
