Line 122:

Turbo codes have not yet been concatenated with solid (low complexity) [[Reed-Solomon error correction]] codes. However, in the interest of planetary exploration this may someday be done.

===LDPC codes: replacing turbo codes===

The [[low-density parity-check code]] is beinga adoptedblock tocoding technique that, replacelike turbo codingcodes, givinghas been shown to operate close to channel capacity. LDPC codes traditionally perform slightly better performancethan turbo codes, at the cost of morehigher computational complexity. Accordingly, there are certain applications where one is more favorable than the other.
