Turbo codes are a class of high-performance error correction codes used in digital communication and data storage systems. They were introduced in the early 1990s by Claude Berrou, Alain Glavieux, and Olivier Thitimajshima. Turbo codes are designed to approach the theoretical limits of error correction as defined by the Shannon limit, making them highly effective in ensuring reliable data transmission over noisy channels.
