A Note on Low Density Parity Check Codes for Erasures and Errors

چکیده

We analyze low density parity check codes that correct both errors and erasures using a simple decoding scheme. Our framework unifies previous analyses for low density parity check codes and erasure codes. The result is a general class of codes that corrects both errors and erasures, with corresponding simple linear time encoding and decoding algorithms and provable performance guarantees. We also describe how these codes can be applied to yield a new fast algorithm for the setting of of Gaussian noise, and leave several open questions regarding the construction of these codes and the associated decoding algorithms.

A Modification Method for Constructing Low-Density Parity-Check Codes for Burst Erasures

We study a modification method for constructing lowdensity parity-check (LDPC) codes for solid burst erasures. Our proposed modification method is based on a column permutation technique for a parity-check matrix of the original LDPC codes. It can change the burst erasure correction capabilities without degradation in the performance over random erasure channels. We show by simulation results t...

On the erasure-correcting capabilities of low-complexity decoded LDPC codes with constituent Hamming codes

Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes can be constructed using constituent block codes other than single parity-check (SPC) codes. This paper considers random LDPC codes with constituent Hamming codes and investigates their asymptotic performance over the binary erasure channel. It is shown that there exist Hamming code-based LDPC codes which, when decoded with a low-complexity iterative algori...

Thresholds for Correcting Errors, Erasures, and Faulty Syndrome Measurements in Degenerate Quantum Codes.

We suggest a technique for constructing lower (existence) bounds for the fault-tolerant threshold to scalable quantum computation applicable to degenerate quantum codes with sublinear distance scaling. We give explicit analytic expressions combining probabilities of erasures, depolarizing errors, and phenomenological syndrome measurement errors for quantum low-density parity-check codes with lo...

Performance of Low-Density Parity-Check Codes for Burst Erasure Channels

Performance of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes with maximum likelihood decoding (MLD) for solid burst erasures is discussed. The columns of the paritycheck matrix of LDPC codes are permuted to increase the distance between elements (DBEs) which are defined as a number of symbol positions between elements 1 at each row of the parity-check matrix. The column permutation method can change th...
