A proof of maximum contention-flee property of interleavers for Turbo codes using permutation polynomials over integer rings

It is well known that interleavers play a critical role in Turbo coding/decoding schemes, and contention-free interleaver design has become a serious problem in the paraUelization of Turbo decoding, which is indispensable to meet the demands for high throughput and low latency in next generation mobile communication systems. This paper unveils the fact that interleavers based on permutation polynomials modulo N are contention-free for every window size W, a factor of the intedeaver length N, which, also called maximum contention-free interleavers.
