Turbo Codes with Modified Code-matched Interleaver over AWGN and Rayleigh Fading Channel

A novel Code-Matched interleaver is proposed which decreases the number of the low weight codewords to improve the performance of the Turbo code. The modified design can adapt more kinds of Turbo codes determined by the generator matrix, while it doesn't decrease the bit error rate performance of Turbo codes at moderate to high signal to noise ratio. At the same time, in Rayleigh fading channel, the new Code-Matched interleaver can also debase the error floor.
