Abstract
A modified algorithm for evaluating transfer functions of turbo codes with punctured systematic bits is presented. The obtained transfer function leads to a more accurate estimation of the weight distribution of the code. Consequently, a tighter upper bound on the bit error rate performance of the code is obtained
