摘要: 设计了一种面向无线通信的兼容卷积码、Turbo码和LDPC码的多模式信道纠错码译码器.这种译码器通过一个串行运算器,用于各种不同参数的卷积码的Viterbi译码、Turbo码MAX-Log-MAP译码与LDPC码的和积译码;通过多个串行运算器并行数据处理,实现高速的纠错码译码.通过可配置的结构,实现各种不同卷积码、Turbo码和LDPC码的快速解码.在65 nm CMOS工艺下,该译码器资源约为2.1 mm2,slow case下时钟速率600 MHz;工作在600 MHz时,可完成300 Mb/s的卷积码译码和LDPC码译码,及160 Mb/s的Turbo码译码,满足主要标准的信道译码需求.Abstract: In this paper we present a multi-mode decoder architecture for convolutional codes, Turbo codes and block low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. It can finish viterbi decoding for convolutioan codes, Max-Log-MAP decoding for Turbo codes and Sum-product decoding for LDPC codes, which are based on a novel serial computation unit. It can process Min-Sum as well as Add-Compare-Select (ACS) operations. A configrable coprocessor is realized,and this allows the decoding of a vast number of different channel codes and implementation of various communication standards' channel coding schemes with just one single IPcore. According to 65 nm technology, this results in a Viterbi decoding and LDPC decoding throughput of 300 Mbit/s, and Turbo decoding of 160 Mbit/s, at 600 MHz for an area of 2.1 mm2.
