Network-on-Chip for Low Power MAP Decoder Using Folded Technique and CORDIC Algorithm for 5G Network

Abstract

With different constraint length (K), time scale, and code rate, modified MAP (maximum a posteriori) decoder architecture using folding technique, which has a linear life time chart, is developed, and dedicated turbo codes will be placed in a network-on-chip for various wireless applications. Folded techniques mitigated the number of latches used in interleaving and deinterleaving unit by adopting forward and backward resource utilizing method to M-2, where M is the number of rows and end-to-end delay get reduced to 2M. By replacing conventional full adder by high speed adder using 2 x 1 multiplexer to calculate the forward state metrics and reverse state metrics will minimize the power consumption utilization in an effective manner. In s similar way, CORDIC (Coordinated ROtation DIgital Computer) algorithm is used to calculate the LLR value and confer a highly precise value with less computational complexity by means of only shifting and adding methods.
