The most appropriate low density parity check (LDPC) code for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) system suitable for future multimedia communication systems is presented in this paper. HARQ system with punctured LDPC code is investigated at first. And two transmission schemes with parallel concatenated LDPC code are also presented and their performances are analyzed according to the various values of mean column weight (MCW). As a result, the parallel concatenated LDPC code with the diversity effect of information bit is considered to be more appropriate for HARQ system considering the throughput as well as error performance.

We consider the challenges of finding good puncturing patterns for rate-compatible low-density parity-check code (LDPC) codes over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels. Puncturing is a scheme to obtain a series of higher rate codes from a lower rate mother code. It is widely used in channel coding but it causes performance is lost compared to non-punctured LDPC codes at the same rate. Previous work, considered the role of survived check nodes in puncturing patterns. Limitations, such as single survived check node assumption and simulation-based verification, were examined. This paper analyzes the performance according to the role of multiple survived check nodes and multiple dead check nodes. Based on these analyses, we propose new algorithm to find a good puncturing pattern for LDPC codes over AWGN channels.

In this letter, we propose a channel estimation algorithm based on incremental pilots. These are pilots additionally inserted after puncturing the modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols to enhance channel estimation performance without lowering bandwidth efficiency. A low-density parity-check code puncturing scheme is also proposed to prevent the performance degradation due to the codeword bit loss caused by punctured OFDM symbols.

차세대 위성 방송 시스템에서는 빠른 전송 효율과 신뢰도 있는 통신에 대한 요구가 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 전송 효율을 높이고 성능을 향상시키기 위해 새로운 위성 표준 인 DVB-S3 (Digital Video Broadcasting - Satellite - Third Generation) 시스템에서는 Nyquist 전송률 보다 빠르게 전송하는 FTN (Faster Than Nyquist) 방식이 대두되고 있다. 이러한 요구에 맞춰 본 논문에서는 전송 효율 향상을 위한 세 가지 방식에 대한 성능을 비교 분석하였다. 기존의 LDPC 부호기에서 고 부호화율 방식과 LDPC 복호화 과정에서 생선된 check node를 이용하여 bit node를 puncturing시켜 부호화율 증가 시키는 punctured LDPC 방식, 그리고 Nyquist 속도보다 빠르게 전송하는 FTN 방식이 고려된다. 시뮬레이션을 통해, 세 가지 방식을 동일 전송률 관점에서 성능을 비교한 결과 FTN 방식은 동일한 전송 효율을 유지하면서 성능 면에서 가장 효율적임을 확인하였다.
