In this paper, we propose a syndrome decoding scheme that can correct two errors for single error correcting Hamming codes within a code length. The decoding scheme proposed in this paper has the advantage of significantly improving the error rate performance compared to the decoder complexity by correcting multiple errors without substantially increasing the decoding complexity. It is suitable for applications in which the energy use of encoder/decoder is extremely limited and the low error rate performance is required, such as IoT communications and molecular communications. In order to verify the improvement of the error rate performance of the Hamming code with the proposed decoding scheme, we performed simulation on Hamming codes with short code length in the AWGN and BPSK modulation environments. As a result, compared with the conventional decoding method, the proposed decoding scheme showed performance improvement of about 1.1 ~ 1.2[dB] regardless of the code length of the Hamming code.

A signal generation simulator is an economical and useful solution in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver design and testing. A software-defined radio approach is widely used both in receivers and simulators, and its flexible structure to adopt to new signals is ideally suited to the testing of a receiver and signal processing algorithm in the signal design phase of a new satellite-based navigation system before the deployment of satellites in space. The generation of highly accurate delayed sampled codes is essential for generating signals in the simulator, where its sampling rate should be chosen to satisfy constraints such as Nyquist criteria and integer and non-commensurate properties in order not to cause any distortion of original signals. A high sampling rate increases the accuracy of code delay, but decreases the computational efficiency as well, and vice versa. Therefore, the selected sampling rate should be as low as possible while maintaining a certain level of code delay accuracy. This paper presents the lower limits of the sampling rate for GNSS signal generation simulators. In the simulation, two distinct code generation methods depending on the sampling position are evaluated in terms of accuracy versus computational efficiency to show the lower limit of the sampling rate for several GNSS signals.

The channel parameters such as RMS delay spread and Doppler frequency have an effect on performance of system. This paper investigates the effect between the Inter-Code Interference (ICI) and the frequency diversity gain in the multi-rate MC-CDMA system. The multi-rate MC-CDMA system has achieved the more variable data rate than the MC-CDMA and moreover it has the better performance than the OFDMA system, because it has achieved the frquency diversity gain. However, the frequency diversity gain and ICI have a trade-off relationship by using the spreading code. Therefore, we have improved the system performance by efficient choice of system parameters. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the frequency diversify gain and the ICI effect, we perform simulations by altering the Doppler frequency and RMS delay spread.

Turbo decoder were shown to achieve performance within 0.7㏈ of the Shannon capacity limit. This constituted a significant gain in power efficiency over other coding techniques known at the time. In this paper, Turbo code with constraint length K＝4, code rate 1/3, frame size 196bits(6 tail bits), 20㎳ frame and 6bit MAP decoder is implemented using VHDL. The designed Turbo code is used for voice service. Interactions of the system are used to attain large performance improvements.

In this paper, in order to mitigate ISI(inter-symbol interference) in a diffusion-based molecular communication channel, an ISI Hamming code is proposed in which ISI characteristics are applied to a channel decoding algorithm. In order to prove the bit error rate performance of the proposed channel code, the bit error rate performance of the major channel codes applied to the molecular communication channel with ISI was compared and analyzed through simulation. From the simulation results, it can be seen that the bit error rate performance of the ISI Hamming code is the best when the number of radiated molecules is less than or equal to 1100. In addition, when the number of transmitted molecules is M=1000, the decoding method of the ISI Hamming code proposed in this paper has improved the bit error rate of approximately 5.9×10-5 compared to the Hamming code using only soft values. Compared with the ISI-mitigating channel code, which is effective for removing ISI in the molecular communication channel, the ISI Hamming code proposed in this paper is the most advantageous in a channel environment where the number of transmitted molecules is not big (M<1100). And we can see that the ISI-mitigating channel code is more advantageous when the number of transmitted molecules is large(M>1100).

As life style becomes to be complicated, lots of support technologies were developed. The bar code technology is one of them. It was renovating approach to goods industry. However, data storage ability in one dimension bar code came in limit because of industry growth. Two-dimension bar code was proposed to overcome one-dimension bar code. PDF417 bar code most commonly used in standard two-dimension bar codes is well defined at data decoding and error correction area. More works could be done in bar code image acquisition process. Applying various image enhancement algorithms, the recognition rate of PDF417 bar code is improved.

Since the period of a spreading code in DS/SS communication systems is generally long, it is necessary to make the code acquisition as fast as possible. The code acquisition time can be sued as a measure to evaluate the performance of code acquisition systems. The search rate of serial search codee acquisition system used in the coventional CDMA cellular system is lower than that of the matched filter technique. In order to reduce the code acquisition time, this paper proposes hybrid code acquisition system composed filters combined with serial search blocks. In the proposed system, the matched filter sweeps possible code phases fast and the acquired phase information is verified by the serial search block. The mean and the variance of its acquisition time are calculated and compared with those of double dwell serial search system. The results indicate better performance of the proposed system by yielding its small vaues of the mean and the variance of code acquisition time.

The modulation code with the limitation of consecutive transition length is a type of channel codes in high-density magnetic recording channel. When code sequence has two or less successive transitions, the detection performance of channel outputs can be improved. However, the code rate is reduced considerably. We present a rate 7/8 nut-length limited (RLL) code that consecutive transition length of each codeword is limited to 2 (j=2), and j is allowed to be 3 when codewords are connected. In addition, the consecutive zeros of the proposed code is limited to 7 (k=7).

In this paper, an efficient concatenated coding scheme under the satellite channel is presented. The performance of this scheme in terms of bit error rate versus energy per information bit over white gaussian noise power density E/N has been evaluated via computer simulation as a function of various system parameters. To achieve accuracy in simulation results, the distortions caused from the satellite channel, such as the nonlinearity of the TWTA(traveling wave tube amplifier), signal distortions of the input and output filters, has been considered. The simulation results show that, through using the 2/3 punctured convolutional code as the inner code of the concatenated code system, the coding rate can be improved more over 16%, while maintaining the same system complexity and bit error performance.
