Abstract :
We present a new code construction called partially concatenated convolutional codes. Parallel concatenated convolutional codes (turbo codes) and serially concatenated convolutional codes can be regarded as special cases of this construction. However, proper partitioning of the outer code sequences provides a new degree of freedom for code design
