Abstract

Nakagami-m channels are communication channels that can be modeled using the Nakagami-m distribution. The Nakagami-m distribution provides a wide range of models for channels exhibiting fading (fluctuating channels). By suitably choosing the m parameter, a certain fading intensity/strength can be simulated. This paper aims to assess the performance of different types of turbo-codes (TC) over Nakagami channels.
