چکیده
A class of geometrically structured quasi-cyclic low-density paritycheck codes with a cylinder structure graph and girth 12 is considered. The parity-check matrix of such a code consists of blocks of zeros and circulant permutation matrices. A class of convolutional codes is assigned to these codes. The convolutional form generator matrix of these codes is obtained by elementary row and column operations. It is shown that the free distance of the obtained convolutional codes is equal to the minimum distance of their bock code counterparts.

Structured LDPC convolutional codes
LDPC convolutional codes, also known as spatially coupled LDPC codes, have attracted considerable attention due to their promising properties. By coupling the protographs from different positions into a chain and terminating the chain properly, the resulting convolutional-like LDPC code ensemble is able to produce capacityachieving performance in the limit of large parameters. In addition, opti...

In this paper, we present a construction method of terminated non-binary low-density parity-check (LDPC) convolutional codes. Our construction method is an expansion of Felstrom and Zigangirov construction [1] for non-binary LDPC convolutional codes. The rate-compatibility of the non-binary LDPC convolutional codes is also discussed. The proposed ratecompatible code is designed from one single ...
متن کاملAnalysis of thresholds for braided block codes in BEC
Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, invented by Gallager [2], who described and analyzed a block variant of the codes, arouse great interest of researchers. These codes are widely used in practice since they can be decoded by using relatively simple iterative decoding algorithms. Several modifications of these codes are known, in particular, generalized LDPC codes [3]. In contrast to Gallage...

متن کاملLDPC Generation and New Decoding Process based on Convolutional Encoder
In this paper, we suggest a new technique for LDPC parity-check matrix (H-matrix) generation and a corresponding decoding process. The key idea is to construct LDPC H-matrix by using a convolutional encoder. It is easy to have many different coderates from a mother code with convolutional codes. However, it is difficult to have many different coderates with LDPC codes. Constructing LDPC Hmatrix...
