EXtrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT) charts are useful for characterizing the convergence properties and the performance of turbo receivers. Turbo receivers are generally constructed from two or more Soft Input Soft Output (SISO) modules. By simulating a single SISO module, the transfer characteristic of the SISO module can be obtained using the EXIT class. The transfer characteristics of two SISO modules represented on the same figure by switching the axes give the EXIT chart.

Version Published Release Notes
1.6.0.0

added usage example in the source file,
added link in description for further details

1.5.0.0

added error checking when one of the conditional PDFs is empty

1.4.0.0

minor correction

1.3.0.0

Added an usage example for EXIT class. The file TC_SOVA_RSC.m allows to compute the transfer characteristic of SOVA. The SOVA is implemented separately in sovadec.m. Be aware that the simulation time could be very long.
