Abstract
A feedback control for a turbo decoder controls the feedback between component decoders of the turbo decoder by substituting either a neutral value or a weighted value for the channel transition probabilities utilized by each component decoder during the iterative decoding process. A control switch selects either estimated channel transition probabilities, modifications of these values, or neutral values as the channel transition probabilities utilized by the next component decoder in the subsequent decoding iteration.
