Performance of Block Codes Using the Eigenstructure of the Code Correlation Matrixand Soft-Decision Decoding of BPSK
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method is presented for obtaining the error probability for block codes. The method is based on the eigenvalueeigenvector properties of the code correlation matrix. It is found that under a unary transformation and for an additive white Gaussian noise environment, the performance evaluation of a block code becomes a one-dimensional problem in which only one eigenvalue and its corresponding eigenvector are needed in the computation. The obtained error rate results show remarkable agreement between simulations and analysis. Keywords—bit error rate, block codes, code correlation matrix, eigenstructure, soft-decision decoding, weight vector.

In this paper, we consider sufficient conditions for ruling out some useless iteration steps in a class of softdecision iterative decoding algorithms for binary block codes used over the AWGN channel using BPSK signaling. Sufficient conditions for ruling out the next single decoding step, called ruling-out conditions and those for ruling out all the subsequent iteration steps, called early term...
متن کاملA BPSK Model for Soft-Output Decoding of Binary Linear Block Codes
|It is shown that the bit LLR value in soft-output decoding of a binary linear block code with BPSK modulation can be closely modeled by a second BPSK modulation of reduced noise power. With this modeling, it is possible to provide bit error performance approximations to help in the evaluation of binary linear codes. This can also be used in the design of communications systems which require kn...

In this paper, the combination of equalization and turbo decoding is studied. In the iterative decoding of a product code in block turbo coding system, the equalization process is performed within the iteration loop. The present study aims to investigate the decision feedback equalizer (DFE) incorporated in the iterative decoding. Simulation results show that the more severe the channel interfe...
