== 1) Functional Description ==

This TC1700 is a flexible turbo decoder covering WiMAX, LTE and HSPA+ specifications provided by [http://www.turboconcept.com TurboConcept]. Full documentation is available online at [http://www.turboconcept.com/prod_tc1700.php TurboConcept's Web Site]. 

!TurboConcept's TC1700 Core is a turbo decoder that supports three PHY layer specifications:
  * 3GPP-HSPA
  * 3GPP-LTE
  * WiMAX IEEE802.16e
The Core is optimized for ASIC and FPGA target and uses a unique architecture that reduces by more than 50 % the silicon area when compared to separate single-mode Cores, with no restrictions on the flexibility and features set.

Figure 1 presents the general core structure. The Tc1700 is connected to a MWMR wrapper in order to interface the core to the MWMR controller available at [wiki:Component/VciMwmrController VciMwmrController].

== 4) Limitation ==

This model has the following limitations:
  * fixed number of performed iterations.

The number of performed iterations is fixed to a reasonable value still offering close-to-ideal Bit Error Rate (BER) performances. Please contact [http://www.turboconcept.com TurboConcept] for information about these limitations.

== 5) License ==

The MWMR wrapper is licensed under the SoCLib, GNU LGPLv2.1 license.

The MWMR wrapper instantiates an internal hardware decoder. This internal hardware decoder is licensed under BSD-like license. 

This internal hardware decoder is distributed in a binary form. 

== 6) RTL model ==

Please contact [http://www.turboconcept.com TurboConcept] for information about purchasing a fully functional RTL model of the internal hardware decoder.
