Abstract :
In spite of the excellent bit error rate performance of the original turbo-code, simulations indicate that this code yields relatively poor frame error rate performance. In this paper we show that "primitive" turbo-codes and "asymmetric" turbo-codes provides both good bit error rate and frame error rate performance.
