본 논문은 type I 혼합-자동 반복 요구 (hybrid automatic repeat request: H-ARQ) 시스템에서 저밀도 패리티검사 (low-density parity-check: LDPC)로 부호화된 직교 주파수 분할 다중화 (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing: OFDM) 서브프레임의 전송 순서를 균등 결합 전력이 할당되도록 조정한 재전송 방법을 기초로 성능 개선을 채널 용량을 사용하여 분석하고, 계층 복호 방법을 적용하여 H-ARQ 재전송 기법의 수렴 속도 개선을 확인한다. 구체적으로 임의의 서브프레임 재전송 패턴에 대하여 채널 용량이 클수록 비트오류율 (bit error rate: BER) 성능도 우수하다는 사실을 검증한다. 그러므로 각 서브프레임에 대하여 균등 결합 전력 할당을 보장하는 서브프레임 재전송 패턴은 채널 용량을 최대로 하며, 임의의 다른 서브프레임 전송 순서 조정을 통한 재전송 패턴보다 성능이 우수하다. 결국 균등 결합 전력 할당을 만족하도록 서브프레임 순서를 조정하는 재전송 방법은 기존 체이스 결합 (Chase combining)보다 복호 복잡도를 증가시키지 않으면서도 주목할 만한 성능 개선을 보인다.

One drawback of polar codes is that they are not universal, that is, to achieve optimal performance, different polar codes are required for different kinds of channel. This paper proposes a polar code construction scheme for Nakagami-m fading channel. The scheme fully considers the characteristics of Nakagami-m fading channel, and uses the optimized Bhattacharyya parameter bounds. The constructed code is applied to an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system over Nakagami-m fading channel to prove the performance of polar code. Simulation result shows the proposed codes can get excellent bit error rate (BER) performance with successive cancellation list (SCL) decoding. For example, the designed polar code with cyclic redundancy check (CRC) aided SCL (L = 8) decoding achieves 1.1dB of gain over LDPC at average BER about 10^-5 under 4-quadrature amplitude modulation (4QAM) while the code length is 1024, rate is 0.5.

In this letter, we study the influence of receiver imperfections on bit error rate (BER) degradations in detecting low-density parity-check coded multilevel phase-shift keying signals transmitted over a Rician fading channel. Based on the analytical system model which we previously developed using Monte Carlo simulations, we determine the BER degradations caused by the simultaneous influences of stochastic phase error, quadrature error, in-phase-quadrature mismatch, and the fading severity.

The decoding process of a quasi-cyclic low-density parity check code requires a unique type of rotator. These rotators, called multi-size cyclic-shifters (MSCSs), rotate input data with various sizes, where the size is the amount of data to be rotated. This paper proposes a low-complexity MSCS structure for the case when the sizes have a nontrivial common divisor. By combining the strong points of two previous structures, the proposed structure achieves the smallest area. The experimental results show that the area reduction was more than 14.7% when the proposed structure was applied to IEEE 802.16e as an example.

Carrier interferometry code is considered as a promising scheme that provides significant performance improvement via frequency diversity effect. Space-time coding is commonly employed to achieve a performance gain through space diversity. The combination of these techniques and forward error correction coding will lead to enhanced system capacity and performance. This paper presents a low-density parity check (LDPC) coded space-time orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission scheme with carrier interferometry code for high-capacity and high-performance mobile multimedia communications. Computer simulations demonstrate that the proposed mobile multimedia transmission system offers a considerable performance improvement of approximately 9dB in terms of Eb/No in the Rayleigh fading channel with relatively low delay spread, in comparison with space-time OFDM. Performance gains are further increased, comparing with traditional OFDM systems.

Wireless sensor networks(WSN) technology has various applications such as surveillance and information gathering in the uncontrollable area of human. One of major issues in WSN is the research for reducing the energy consumption and reliability of data. A system with forward error correction(FEC) can provide an objective reliability while using less transmission power than a system without FEC. In this paper, we propose to use LDPC codes of various code rate(0.53, 0.81, 0.91) for FEC for WSN. Also, we considered node-to-node interference in addition to AWGN channel. The proposed system has not only high reliable data transmission at low SNR, but also reduced transmission power usage.

본 논문은 인접 심볼 간의 간섭이 발생하지 않는 최대 데이터 전송률인 Nyquist rate 보다 빠르게 데이터를 전송하여 전송량을 증가시키는 FTN(Faster than Nyquist) 기법을 이용하여 효율적인 복호 방식을 분석한다. FTN 신호 전송시 발생하는 ISI(Inter-Symbol Interference) 를 최소화하기 위해 간섭량을 비터비 등화기의 가지 정보로 활용하여 비터비 등화기 모델을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 FTN 신호를 복호하기 위해 BCJR 기법을 이용한 비터비 등화기와 LDPC 복호기간의 반복으로 이루어진 터보 등화 기법을 이용하여 복호한다. BCJR 복호시 트렐리스 구조를 본 논문에서는 유클리디언 거리를 최대로 함으로써 기존의 방식보다 성능이 향상됨을 알 수 있으며, 이에 따른 FTN 신호의 전송량 증가별 성능을 비교한다.

In this paper, we propose the modified uniformly most powerful (UMP) belief-propagation (BP)-based decoding algorithm which utilizes multiplicative and additive factors to diminish the errors introduced by the approximation of the soft values given by a previously proposed UMP BP-based algorithm. This modified UMP BP-based algorithm shows better performance than that of the normalized UMP BP-based algorithm, i.e., it has an error performance closer to BP than that of the normalized UMP BP-based algorithm on the additive white Gaussian noise channel for low density parity check codes. Also, this algorithm has the same complexity in its implementation as the normalized UMP BP-based algorithm.

A serial concatenated decoding algorithm with dynamic threshold is proposed for low-density parity-check codes with short and medium code lengths. The proposed approach uses a dynamic threshold to select a decoding result from belief propagation decoding and order statistic decoding, which improves the performance of the decoder at a negligible cost. Simulation results show that, under a high SNR region, the proposed concatenated decoder performs better than a serial concatenated decoder without threshold with an Eb/N0 gain of above 0.1 dB.
