Abstract
The present invention provides methods for generating self-inverting turbo code interleavers having high separation and high dispersion characteristics. Methods are provided for deterministically generating self-inverting turbo code interleavers from a specification for an existing non-self-inverting interleaver. Methods are also provided for randomly generating self-inverting turbo code interleavers. The present invention also provides methods and apparatus for encoding digital data and communicating the digital data using self-inverting turbo code interleavers/de-interleavers.
