Abstract :
In this letter, a permutor design parameter, called the weight of a cycle through J-1 permutation matrices, for multiple turbo codes is introduced. Analogously to the single-permutor case of conventional turbo codes, we show the connection of the new parameter to the minimum distance of special classes of multiple turbo codes. In addition, simulation results are presented for multiple turbo codes based on the new design
