Abstract
We find good rate 2/3 and 3/4 convolutional codes for use with iterative decoding (turbo equalization) of coded intersymbol interference with AWGN. The method is based on the input-output bit error rate characteristic of the convolutional BCJR decoder module. An analysis leads to an equivalent minimum distance under the required intrinsic subtraction, which depends on free distance and an input-output LLR correlation parameter.
