Error Correction Coding: Mathematical Methods And Algorithms

This book’s main goal is to supply a modern approach with an implementation-oriented viewpoint. Hands-on programming exercises of important algorithms are provided throughout. The book presents background information on information and decision theory, the classical coding methods still in use (Reed Solomon codes, trellis-codes, etc) as well as the new iteratively-decode codes (including Turbo codes)
