Sažetak This survey paper provides fundamentals in the design of LDPC codes. To provide
a target for the code designer, we first summarize the EXIT chart technique for determining …

The paper introduces the application of information geometry to describe the ground states
of Ising models. This is achieved by utilizing parity-check matrices of cyclic and quasi-cyclic …

Future space missions will put severe constraints on communication links in terms of data
rates, bandwidth occupancy, complexity, and performance. The requirements imposed by …

In this paper, a simple and effective tool for the design of low-density parity-check (LDPC)
codes for iterative correction of bursts of erasures is presented. The design method consists …

In this paper, we presented three approaches to improve the design of Kite codes (newly
proposed rateless codes), resulting in an ensemble of rate-compatible LDPC codes with …

The design of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes under hybrid iterative/maximum
likelihood decoding is addressed for the binary erasure channel (BEC). Specifically, we …

An efficient scheme of extended irregular repeat-accumulate (eIRA-) coded minimum shift
keying (MSK) is presented. Based on an extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) chart, it is …

Recent works showed how low-density parity-check (LDPC) erasure correcting codes, under
maximum likelihood (ML) decoding, are capable of tightly approaching the performance of …

This paper presents several new construction techniques for low-density parity-check
(LDPC) and systematic repeat-accumulate (RA) codes. Based on specific classes of …

In this letter, we propose a class of irregular structured low-density parity-check (LDPC)
codes with low error floor and low encoding complexity by designing the parity check matrix …
