Underwater acoustic communication has multipath error because of reflection by sea-level and sea-bottom. The multipath of underwater channel causes receive signal to make error floor. In this paper, we propose the underwater communication system using various channel coding schemes such as RS coding, convolutional code, turbo code and concatenated code for overcoming the multipath effect in underwater channel. As shown in simulation results, characteristic of multipath error is similar to that of random error. So interleaver has not effect on error correcting. For correcting of error floor by multipath, it is necessary to use strong channel codes like turbo code. Turbo code is one of the iterative codes. And the performance of concatenated codes including RS code has better performance than using singular channel codes.

Conventional multilayer feedforward artificial neural networks are very effective in dealing with spatial problems. To deal with problems with time dependency, some kinds of memory have to be built in the processing algorithm. In this paper we show how the newly proposed Serial Input Neuron (SIN) convolutional decoders can be derived. As an example, we derive the SIN decoder for \ulcornerrate code with constraint length 3. The SIN is tested in Gaussian channel and the results are compared to the results of the optimal Viterbi decoder. A SIN approach to decode convolutional codes is presented. No supervision is required. The decoder lends itself to pleasing implementations in hardware and processing...

The neural convolutional decoder(NCD) was proposed as a method of decoding convolutional codes. In this paper, simulation results are presented for coherent BPSK in memoryless AWGN channels and coherent QPSK in the satellite channels. The NCD can learn the nonlinear distortion caused by the charactersitics of the satellite channel including the filtering effects and the nonlinear effects of the travling wave tube amplifier(TWTA). Thus, as compared with the AWGN channel, the performance difference in the satellite channel between the NCD for the systematic code and the Viterbi decoder for the nonsystematic code is reduced.

It is well known that the viterbi algorithm proposed as a mthod of decoding convolutional codes is in fact maximum likelihood (ML) and therefore optimal. But, because hardware complexity grows exponentially with the constraint length, there will be severe constraints on the implementation of the viterbi decoders. In this paper, the three-layered backpropagation neural networks are proposed as an alternative in order to get sufficiently useful performance and deal successfully with the problems of the viterbi decoder. This paper shows that the neural convolutional decoder (NCD) can make a decision in the point of ML in decoding and describes simulation results. The cause of the difference between stochastic results and simulation results is discussed, and then thefuture prospect of the NCD is described on the basis of the characteristic of the transfer function.

A binary continuous phase frequency shift keying (CPFSK), whose phase is a continuous function of time and instantaneous frequency is constant, is a bandwidth efficient constant envelope signalling scheme. A transmitting signal is formed by combined coding of a convolutional encoder and a binary CPFSK modulator. The signal is transmitted throuth additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) channel. If the received signal is detected by a coherent maximum likelihood(ML) receiver, error probability can be expressed approximately in terms of minimum Euclidean distance. We propose rate 2/4 codes for the improvement of error performance without increating the data rate per bandwidth and the receiver complexity. Its minimum Euclidean distances are compared with those of rate \ulcornercodes as a function of modulation index and observation interval.

With the widespread of smartphones, the Quick response (QR) code became one of the most popular codes. In this paper, a new type of QR code is proposed to increase the storage capacities and also to contain private information by changing the colors and the shape of patterns in the codes. Then, for a variety of applications of the printed QR codes, this paper proposes an efficient authentic certification system, which is built on an conventional CNN (Convolutional neural network) architecture - VGGNet and classifies authentic or counterfeit with smartphones, easily. For authentic codes, the proposed system extracts the embedded private information. Through practical experiments with a printed QR code, it is shown that the proposed system can classify authentic or counterfeit code, perfectly, and also, are useful for extracting private information.

In recent years LEO(Low Earth Orbit) satellite communication systems have gained a lot of interest as high speed multimedia services by satellite are about to be provided. It is mandatory to use very efficient ECC(Error Correcting Code) to support high speed multimedia services over LEO satellite channel. Turbo codes developed by Berrou et al. in 1993 have been actively researched since it can achieve a performance close to the Shannon limit. In this paper, a LEO satellite channel model is adopted and the fading characteristics of LEO satellite channel are analyzed for the change of elevation angle in various propagation environments. The performance of turbo code is analyzed and compared to that of conventional convolutional code using the satellite channel model. In the simulation results using the Globalstar orbit constellations, performance of turbo codes shows 1.0~2.0dB coding gain compared to that of convolutional codes over all elevation angle and propagation environment ranges we have investigated. The performance difference resulting from the change of elevation angle in various propagation environments and the performance of different ECC are analyzed in detail, so that the results can be applied to choose an appropriate ECC scheme for various system environment.

This paper studies the Turbo Codes, the concatenation of Turbo Codes and Reed-Solomon (RS) codes on Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) in digital communication channel, and then analysis the performances of the new concatenated Forward Error Correct (FEC) scheme applied to an OFDM system based on the digital terrestrial video broadcasting (DVB-T) scheme. We compared the results with the standard DVB-T convolutional codes performances on Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channels. The simulation results shown that by employing turbo codes with only a few numbers of iterations, the performances of the overall system can be improved significantly. These results will be obtained by applying an appropriate interleaver technique in the concatenated FEC procedure.

We investigate the rate-compatible punctured convolutional (RCPC) codes concatenated with hierarchical QAM for designing a cross-layer unequal error protection scheme for H.264 coded sequences. We first divide the H.264 encoded video slices into three priority classes based on their relative importance. We investigate the system constraints and propose an optimization formulation to compute the optimal parameters of the proposed system for the given source significance information. An upper bound to the significance-weighted bit error rate in the proposed system is derived as a function of system parameters, including the code rate and geometry of the constellation. An example is given with design rules for H.264 video communications and 3.5-4 dB PSNR improvement over existing RCPC based techniques for AWGN wireless channels is shown through simulations.
