US Patent 7573962 Diversity code combining scheme for turbo coded systems

A diversity code transmission system and method are disclosed. The method including demodulating a first transmission signal using a first continuous phase demodulator resulting in a first output and passing the first output to a first de-interleaver resulting in a second output. The method further including demodulating a second transmission signal using a second continuous phase demodulator resulting in a third output and summing the second output and the third output resulting in a fourth output. The method also includes passing the fourth output to a second de-interleaver resulting in a fifth output and decoding the fifth output to provide a symbol output. The method also includes passing a decoded fifth output to a first interleaver and providing a first interleaver output to the second continuous phase demodulator. Last the method is repeated in an iterative process.
