Joint Iterative Decoding of LDPC Codes and Channels with Memory

Design of LDPC-Coded Modulations for Fast Iterative Decoding

In this paper, we propose an EXIT chart-based approach to code design for low-density parity-check (LDPC)coded modulations. In particular, the adopted technique iteratively modifies the LDPC code degree distribution in order to achieve a target bit error rate (BER) at a given (and possibly small) number of iterations. In this paper, we limit ourselves to communication systems on a binary erasur...

Serial Concatenation and Joint Iterative Decoding of LDPC Codes and Reed-Solomon Codes

In this paper, a serial concatenation scheme and its iterative decoding algorithm between Low Density Parity Check codes (LDPC) and Reed-Solomon codes are proposed. For the decoder, the soft output values delivered by LDPC are used as reliability values to perform the Chase decoding of Reed-Solomon (RS) codes which return soft information to LDPC decoder. This approach presents an option scheme...

Joint iterative decoding of serially concatenated error control coded CDMA

Joint iterative decoding of multiple forward error control (FEC) encoded data streams is studied for linear multiple access channels, such as code-division multiple access (CDMA). It is shown that such systems can be viewed as serially concatenated coding systems, and that iterative soft-decision decoding can be performed successfully. To improve power efficiency, powerful FEC codes are used. T...
