Abstract

In this paper, we study the problem of joint permutor analysis and design for J-dimensional multiple turbo codes with J constituent encoders, J>2. The concept of summary distance is extended to multiple permutors of size N and used as the design metric. Using the sphere-packing concept, we prove that the minimum length-2 summary distance (spread) D <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">min,2</sub> is asymptoticly upper-bounded by O(N <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">J-1</sup> /J). We also show that the asymptotic minimum length-2L summary distance D <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">min,2L</sub> for the class of random permutors is lower-bounded by O(N <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">J-2</sup> J-epsi/), where epsi>0 can be arbitrarily small. Then, using the technique of expurgating "bad" symbols, we show that the spread of random permutors can achieve the optimum growth rate, i.e., O(N <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">J-1</sup> /J), and that the asymptotic growth rate of D <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">min,2L</sub> can also be improved. The minimum length-2 and length-4 summary distances are studied for an important practical class of permutors-linear permutors. We prove that there exist J-dimensional multiple linear permutors with optimal spread D <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">min,2 </sub> =O(N <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">J-1</sup> J/). Finally, we present several joint permutor construction algorithms applicable to multiple turbo codes of short and medium lengths
