The application of Walsh transform for forward error correction
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present a novel class of forward error correcting codes constructed using the discrete Walsh transform. They are a class of double-error correcting codes defined on the field of real numbers. An iterative decoding algorithm for Walsh transform codes is developed and implemented. The error correcting performance of Walsh transform codes over an AWGN channel is evaluated. Selected Walsh transform code parameters are compared to those of the well-known BCH and RS codes.

A Low Complexity Forward Error Correction for PAPR reduction in OFDM Systems
In this paper, a Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) reduction technique in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems is proposed. This technique uses error correction capability of channel coding to reduce the PAPR.The coded bits at the input of OFDM modulator are separated into two groups of the Most Significant Bits (MSB) and the LeastSignificant Bits (LSB). The bits are mappe...
متن کاملLow-rate channel coding with complex-valued block codes
This paper addresses aspects of channel coding in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing–code-division multiple access (OFDM-CDMA) uplink systems where each user occupies a bandwidth much larger than the information bit rate. This inherent bandwidth expansion allows the application of powerful low-rate codes under the constraint of low decoding costs. Three different coding strategies are c...
متن کاملChannel Coding Aspects in an OFDM-CDMA System
| This paper investigates coding aspects in an OFDM-CDMA environment. The inherent bandwidth expansion in CDMA systems offers many possibilities for the application of powerful codes with low code rates. Three different coding strategies are under consideration: the combination of convolutional and repetition codes (conventional DS-CDMA system), a code-spread system consisting of one very low r...
متن کاملJoint Despreading and Iterative Decoding in DS-CDMA System with Serially Concatenated Turbo Code and Walsh Code
A DS-CDMA system with integrated ECC (Error Control Coding) technique is presented in this paper. The eccoder is a serial concatenation of a turbo code and a Walsh orthogonal code. An iterative algorithm for MAP decoding is implemented in the receiver. Decoding and despreading are unified through a joint iterative process in terms of exchanging soft information among receiver components. Compar...
متن کاملComparative Study on Low-Rate Forward Error Correction Codes in Downlink Satellite-to-Ground Laser Communications
In high-speed satellite-to-ground laser communications, it has been shown that the Markov-based erasure channel model is well suited for the downlink experiment results. In that model, since the average erasure rate is relatively high, a low-rate error correction code is needed. In this paper, we focus on the application of low rate systematic Luby transform (SLT) code and show that the perform...
