Iterative Decoding of Parallel Concatenated Block Codes and Coset Based MAP Decoding Algorithm for F24 Code

A multi dimensional concatenation scheme for block codes is introduced, in which information symbols are interleaved and re encoded for more than once. It provides a convenient platform to design high performance codes with flexible interleaver size. Coset based MAP soft in/soft out decoding algorithms are presented for the F24 code. Simulation results show that the proposed coding scheme can achieve high coding gain with flexible interleaver length and very low decoding complexity.

The decoding technique of concatenated Hadamard codes and its performance are studied. Efficient soft in soft out decoding algorithms based on the fast Hadamard transform are developed. Performance required by CDMA mobile or PCS speech services, e.g. , BER=10 -3 , can be achieved at Eb/No =0.9 dB using short interleaving length of 192 bits.

Degenerate asymmetric quantum concatenated codes for correcting biased quantum errors

In most practical quantum mechanical systems,quantum noise due to decoherence is highly biased towards dephasing.The quantum state suffers from phase flip noise much more seriously than from the bit flip noise.In this work,we construct new families of asymmetric quantum concatenated codes(AQCCs)to deal with such biased quantum noise.Our construction is based on a novel concatenation scheme for constructing AQCCs with large asymmetries,in which classical tensor product codes and concatenated codes are utilized to correct phase flip noise and bit flip noise,respectively.We generalize the original concatenation scheme to a more general case for better correcting degenerate errors.Moreover,we focus on constructing nonbinary AQCCs that are highly degenerate.Compared to previous literatures,AQCCs constructed in this paper show much better parameter performance than existed ones.Furthermore,we design the specific encoding circuit of the AQCCs.It is shown that our codes can be encoded more efficiently than standard quantum codes.

A reduced state SISO iterative decoding algorithm for serially concatenated continuous phase modulation

In this paper, serially concatenated continuous phase modulation （SCCPM） system is analyzed and a reduced state soft input soft output （SlSO） a posteriori probability algorithm is proposed. Based on the reduced state sequence detection （RSSD）, it has the more general form compared with other reduced state SISO algorithms. The proposed algorithm can greatly reduce the state number, thus leads to the computation complexity reduction. It also minimizes the degradation in Euclidean distance with decision feedback in the reduced state trellis. Analysis and simulation results show that the performance degradation is little with proper reduction scheme.

Based on the studies of Reed-Solomon codes and orthogonalspace-time block codes over Rayleigh fading channel, a theoreticalmethod for estimating performance of Reed-Solomon codes concatenatedwith orthogonal space- time block codes is presented in this paper.And an upper bound of the bit error rate is also obtained. It isshown through computer simulations that the signal-to-noise ratioreduces about 15 dB or more after orthogonal space-time block codesare concatenate with Reed-Solomon(15,6)codes over Rayleigh fadingchannel, when the bit error rate is 10^-4.

Multiple accumulated-crossover parallel concatenated SPC codes

By constructing an accumulated-crossover relationship in multiple parallel concatenated single parity check （M-PC-SPC） codes, a class of error-correcting codes, termed multiple accumulated-crossover parallel concatenated single parity check （M-ACPC-SPC） codes, is proposed. M-ACPC-SPC codes possess linear encoding complexity and can be decoded iteratively with low complexity by the sum-product algorithm （SPA）. Simulation results show that M-ACPC-SPC codes have lower error floors than M-PCSPC codes with the same dimension, and when the dimension is 5, M-ACPC-SPC codes achieve bit error rate （BER） better than （3, 6） regular low density parity check （LDPC） codes.

How to apply polar codes in high throughput space communications

This paper describes how to apply polar codes in high-throughput space communications.The high throughput space communications can enable terabit data rate capacity wideband wireless transmissions,and offer service availability of anywhere and anytime.The paper investigates the channel characteristics in space communications.The channels are lossy,time-varying,intermittent,long-latency,and with imperfect channel state information(CSI).In order to make the polar codes suitable for the space channel,some improvements and designs on the polar codes are provided in this paper.The encoding and decoding methods of polar codes are discussed,which are the key to determine the performance.We describe some rateless polar coding schemes that can guide the construction of suitable codes for time-varying channels with no-CSI in long-haul transmissions.Then,a high-rate parallel concatenation scheme of polar codes is introduced,which can improve the anti-interrupt ability of polar codes.Moreover,in order to support the massive connectivity requirements of future space communication networks,polar-coded sparse-code-multiple-access(SCMA)schemes are investigated.

Improving the Structure of Multiple Dimension Turbo Codes Using Multiple Identical Component Encoders

In this paper,we propose an improved structure for M-dimension ( M ≥ 2)turbo codes using M identical component encoders. The presented structure only applies single recursive convolutional encoder to encode M interleaved versions of infor-mation sequence and single tail sequence to operate termination. For the commonly used two-dimension (M = 2) turbo codes,two cascade soft input soft output (SISO) decoders are detailed to de-code the corresponding codes. With the two cascade SISO decod-ers,this coding structure obviously outperforms traditional turbo codes at high code rates,especially,about 0.3 dB gain can be ob-tained at code rate 0.9 in additive white Gaussian noise channel with quadrature phase shift keying modulation. This makes the proposed coding structure very attractive for future radio commu-nication systems with high throughput requirements.
