Abstract :
We investigate the performance of turbo codes in an environment with asynchronous impulsive noise present in power lines. The model used for the noise is based on actual measurements, and is built using partitioned Markov chains. Computer simulations exploring the effects of code length, noise energy, transmission rate, and channel interleaving are presented.
