Blind parameter estimation of turbo convolutional codes : noisy and non-synchronized scenario by Swaminathan, Ramabadran, Madhukumar, A. S.

“…Any imperfection in synchronization of received data for the proposed code parameter estimation algorithm is compensated through a bit position adjustment parameter. The performance of the proposed algorithms in terms of parameter estimation accuracy is investigated for different modulation order, code rate, and constraint length values. …”
