Abstract
A final-year undergraduate project in error-control coding is discussed. Th e project consists of the study. software implementation and computer simul ation of turbo codes using two different decoding approaches, the Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) and Soft-Output Viterbi Algorithm (SOVA). It combines the ory with computer-aided design and provides hands-on experience in the fiel d of channel coding.
