Upper bounds on the error probabilities induced by finite truncation depth and the uncertainty of the initial state are derived for the AWGN channel. The truncation depth and the decoding trellis length that yield negligible performance loss are obtained for all transmission rates over the Rayleigh channel using computer simulations. The results show that the circular decoding algorithm with an appropriately chosen truncation depth and a decoding trellis just a fraction longer than the original received code words can achieve almost the same performance as the optimal maximum likelihood decoding algorithm in mobile WiMAX. A rule of thumb for the values of the truncation depth and the trellis tail length is also proposed. Keywords WiMAX tail-biting convolutional codes circular decoding 1 Introduction The IEEE defines the wireless metropolitan area network MAN technology that is commonly referred to as WiMAX. The IEEE includes two sets of standards IEEE 1 for fixed WiMAX and IEEE 2 for mobile WiMAX. In mobile WiMAX tail-biting convolutional codes TBCCs 3 are designated as the mandatory error-correcting codes. In the WiMAX transmitters data bursts are divided into data blocks and each data block is separately encoded by a TBCC encoder. The circular decoding algorithm 4-6 in which the wraparound Viterbi algorithm traverses on the .
