Abstract. The focus of paper is directed towards the investigation of the characteristics of error-correcting block turbo-codes which enable communication at relatively low received signal/noise and provide very high power efficiency. Specific feature of investigated turbo-codes is construction with shortened information block for generated error-correcting block-code. According to this the considered shortened turbo-codes have symbol-by-symbol decoding algorithms developed for total class of turbo-codes, namely, decoding algorithms based on modified Chase algorithm. These decoding algorithms with low complexity implementation are iterative and for implementation the channel parameter signal/noise is not required. The resulted characteristics of shortened turbo-codes constructed with usage generated turbo-code (duration of code words, information volume, code rate, error performances) are presented in this paper. The computer simulations for iterative decoding algorithms for the number of turbo-codes with different code rate and information volumes are performed. The results of computer simulations have shown that the investigated shortened turbo-codes are more effective than known convolutional codes with equivalent parameters - the degradation of signal/noise is about 1.85 dB for bit-error 0.00001 for convolutional code with code rate 1/2 concerning the shortened turbo-code based on generated turbo-code with parameters (16384,12769,36).
