The proposed strategy is based on the cyclic redundancy check( CRC) of the messages in the subframes 2 and 3. The simulation results show that average number of iterations of the proposed strategy is less than that of the standard ET strategy,with nearly no degradation in decoding performance. Besides,the proposed ET strategy can be efficiently implemented in a sequential or parallel manner. Thus,the proposed ET strategy is attractive for practical purposes.展开更多
