Abstract :
We consider construction and realization aspects of encoders and decoders for braided block codes (BBCs), which are a powerful class of iteratively decodable codes. An efficient encoder is proposed as well as a pipeline decoder realization. Also, upper and lower bounds on the free distance of BBCs are derived
