Description
A quantum version of the turbo code, obtained from an interleaved serial quantum concatenation [2; Def. 30] of quantum convolutional codes.
Encoding
Encoders of codes with polynomial distance encoders yield catastrophic errors, but code with bounded distance admit non-catastrophic encoders.
Decoding
Turbo decoder [2; Sec. V].Modified decoder yield improvement over the memoryless depolarizing channel [3].
