The throughput depends on how optimal and fast the program you write is. I'm not familar with Turbo decoder theory. In 2007, we used turbo decoder from IT++ libary (http://sourceforge.net/apps/wordpress/itpp/). It is faster than that we wrote. It supports a 64 kbps (One CPU) and 384 kbps (maybe 3 CPUs, I don't remember.) TD-SCDMA PHY layer in realtime. Another method is to use SIMD optimization.
