A Theoretical Framework for Soft-Information-Based Synchronization in Iterative (Turbo) Receivers
This contribution considers turbo synchronization, that is to say, the use of soft data information to estimate parameters like mpu63zm/a copyright phase, frequency, or timing offsets of a modulated signal within an iterative data demodulator.In turbo synchronization, the receiver exploits the soft decisions computed at each turbo decoding iteratio
