The operand-width specifications in fixed-point hardware implementations of turbo code decoders is an important design issue, since this governs the trade-off between the decoder's performance and its complexity, cost, area and energy consumption. The investigation of this issue would be extremely time-consuming in the conventional approach, which relies upon Monte-Carlo simulation based Bit Error...
