Non-Binary Polar Codes (NBPCs) have been investigated to obtain the performance gains and reduce latency under the implementation of parallel architectures for multi-bit decoding. However, most of the existing works only focus on the Reed-Solomon matrix-based NBPCs and the probability domain-based non-binary polar decoding, which lack flexible structure and have a large computation amount in the decoding process, while little attention has been paid to general non-binary kernel-based NBPCs and Log-Likelihood Ratio (LLR) based decoding methods. In this paper, we consider a scheme of NBPCs with a general structure over GF(2m). Specifically, we pursue a detailed Monte-Carlo simulation implementation to determine the construction for proposed NBPCs. For non-binary polar decoding, an SCL decoding based on LLRs is proposed for NBPCs, which can be implemented with non-binary kernels of arbitrary size. Moreover, we propose a Perfect Polarization-Based SCL (PPB-SCL) algorithm based on LLRs to reduce decoding complexity by deriving a new update function of path metric for NBPCs and eliminating the path splitting process at perfect polarized (i.e., highly reliable) positions. Simulation results show that the bit error rate of the proposed NBPCs significantly outperforms that of BPCs. In addition, the proposed PPB-SCL decoding obtains about a 40% complexity reduction of SCL decoding for NBPCs.展开更多

Recently, the theory of quantum error correcting codes has developed rapidly and been extended to protect quantum information over asymmetric quantum channels, in which phase-shift and qubit-flip errors occur with different probabilities. In this paper, we generalize the construction of symmetric quantum codes via graphs (or matrices) to the asymmetric case, converting the construction of asymmetric quantum codes to finding matrices with some special properties. We also propose some asymmetric quantum Maximal Distance Separable (MDS) codes as examples constructed in this way.展开更多

They are also known to provide linear complexity of encoding, but the basic encoding method with the serial rate-1 accumulator significantly limits the encoder throughput. Then the objective of the research presented in this paper is to develop an encoding method pro- viding significantly increased throughput of an NB-IRA encoder altogether with a flexible code construction methods for the structured(S-NB-IRA) codes eligible for the proposed encoding method. For this purpose, we reformulate the classic encoding algorithm to fit into the partial parallel encoder architecture. We propose the S-NB-IRA encoder block diagram and show that its estimated throughput is proportional to the submatrix size of the parity check matrix, which guarantees a wide complexity- throughput tradeoff. Then, in order to facilitate the S-NB-IRA coding systems design, we present a computer search algorithm for the construction of good S-NB-IRA codes. The algorithm aims at optimizing the code graph topology along with selecting an appropriate non-binary elements in the parity check matrix. Numerical results show that the constructed S-NB-IRA codes significantly outperform the binary IRA and S-IRA codes, while their performance is similar to the best unstructured NB-LDPC codes.展开更多

Yaletharatalhussein decoding algorithm outperforms the Viterbi algorithm and other algorithms in its simplicity, very small computational complexity, decoding reliability for high states TCM codes that suitable for Fourth-Generation (4G), decreasing errors with increasing word length, and easy to implement with real-time applications. The proposed Yaletharatalhussein decoding algorithm deals with non-binary error control coding of the convolutional and TCM codes. Convolutional codes differ from block codes in that a block code takes a fixed message length and encodes it, whereas a convolutional code can encode a continuous stream of data, and a hard-decision decoding can easily be realized using the Yaletharatalhussein algorithm. The idea of non-binary codes has been extended for symbols defined over rings of integers, which outperform binary codes with only a small increase in decoding complexity. The simulation results show that the performance of the nonbinary TCM-based Yaletharatalhussein algorithm outperforms the binary and non-binary decoding methods.展开更多

文摘Constituted by BCH component codes and its ordered statistics decoding(OSD),the successive cancellation list(SCL)decoding of U-UV structural codes can provide competent error-correction performance in the short-to-medium length regime.However,this list decoding complexity becomes formidable as the decoding output list size increases.This is primarily incurred by the OSD.Addressing this challenge,this paper proposes the low complexity SCL decoding through reducing the complexity of component code decoding,and pruning the redundant SCL decoding paths.For the former,an efficient skipping rule is introduced for the OSD so that the higher order decoding can be skipped when they are not possible to provide a more likely codeword candidate.It is further extended to the OSD variant,the box-andmatch algorithm(BMA),in facilitating the component code decoding.Moreover,through estimating the correlation distance lower bounds(CDLBs)of the component code decoding outputs,a path pruning(PP)-SCL decoding is proposed to further facilitate the decoding of U-UV codes.In particular,its integration with the improved OSD and BMA is discussed.Simulation results show that significant complexity reduction can be achieved.Consequently,the U-UV codes can outperform the cyclic redundancy check(CRC)-polar codes with a similar decoding complexity.

文摘Space laser communication(SLC)is an emerging technology to support high-throughput data transmissions in space networks.In this paper,to guarantee the reliability of high-speed SLC links,we aim at practical implementation of low-density paritycheck(LDPC)decoding under resource-restricted space platforms.Particularly,due to the supply restriction and cost issues of high-speed on-board devices such as analog-to-digital converters(ADCs),the input of LDPC decoding will be usually constrained by hard-decision channel output.To tackle this challenge,density-evolution-based theoretical analysis is firstly performed to identify the cause of performance degradation in the conventional binaryinitialized iterative decoding(BIID)algorithm.Then,a computation-efficient decoding algorithm named multiary-initialized iterative decoding with early termination(MIID-ET)is proposed,which improves the error-correcting performance and computation efficiency by using a reliability-based initialization method and a threshold-based decoding termination rule.Finally,numerical simulations are conducted on example codes of rates 7/8 and 1/2 to evaluate the performance of different LDPC decoding algorithms,where the proposed MIID-ET outperforms the BIID with a coding gain of 0.38 dB and variable node calculation saving of 37%.With this advantage,the proposed MIID-ET can notably reduce LDPC decoder’s hardware implementation complexity under the same bit error rate performance,which successfully doubles the total throughput to 10 Gbps on a single-chip FPGA.

文摘The beyond fifth-generation Internet of Things requires more capable channel coding schemes to achieve high-reliability,low-complexity and lowlatency communications.The theoretical analysis of error-correction performance of channel coding functions as a significant way of optimizing the transmission reliability and efficiency.In this paper,the efficient estimation methods of the block error rate(BLER)performance for rate-compatible polar codes(RCPC)are proposed under several scenarios.Firstly,the BLER performance of RCPC is generally evaluated in the additive white Gaussian noise channels.That is further extended into the Rayleigh fading channel case using an equivalent estimation method.Moreover,with respect to the powerful decoder such as successive cancellation list decoding,the performance estimation is derived analytically based on the polar weight spectrum and BLER upper bounds.Theoretical evaluation and numerical simulation results show that the estimated performance can fit well the practical simulated results of RCPC under the objective conditions,verifying the validity of our proposed performance estimation methods.Furthermore,the application designs of the reliability estimation of RCPC are explored,particularly in the advantages of the signal-to-noise(SNR)estimation and throughput efficiency optimization of polar coded hybrid automatic repeat request.

文摘The construction of polar codes in corre-lated block fading channels is still an open issue to be solved.In this paper,to explicitly reveal the impact of correlation on error performance of polar coded diver-sity communication systems,an integrated framework has been established to analyze the theoretical error performance of polar codes in correlated block fading channels.First,the upper bound on error probabil-ity of polarized channels is derived based on split po-lar spectrum,which is fully determined by covariance channel matrix as well as the block-wise weight distri-bution of the corresponding polar subcode.Further,to facilitate practical implementations,we design a con-struction metric named polarized correlation weight(PCW)to generate polar codes in correlated block fad-ing channels.Finally,simulation results on block error rate indicate that the proposed metric can exhibit both diversity gain and coding gain compared to the con-ventional methods under successive cancellation de-coding.
