Performance of HARQ I schemes using turbo codes

In this paper, we study the performance of HARQ I schemes using turbo codes over AWGN channels. The decoding process is done by using the Max-log-MAP algorithm. We provide simulation results of the used turbo-code in terms of bit error rate, frame error rate and throughput efficiency of HARQ I schemes.
