Performance Comparison Of Message Passing Decoding Algorithms For Binary And Non-binary Low Density Parity Check (ldpc) CodesUzunoglu, Cihan 01 December 2007 (has links) (PDF)
In this thesis, we investigate the basics of Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes
over binary and non-binary alphabets. We especially focus on the message passing
decoding algorithms, which have different message definitions such as a posteriori
probabilities, log-likelihood ratios and Fourier transforms of probabilities. We
present the simulation results that compare the performances of small block length
binary and non-binary LDPC codes, which have regular and irregular structures
over GF(2),GF(4) and GF(8) alphabets. We observe that choosing non-binary
alphabets improve the performance with careful selection of mean column weight
by comparing LDPC codes with variable node degrees of 3, 2.8 and 2.6, since it is
effective in the order of GF(2), GF(4) and GF(8) performances.

On applications of puncturing in error-correction codingKlinc, Demijan 05 April 2011 (has links)
This thesis investigates applications of puncturing in error-correction coding and physical layer security with an emphasis on binary and non-binary LDPC codes.
Theoretical framework for the analysis of punctured binary LDPC codes at short block lengths is developed and a novel decoding scheme is designed that achieves considerably faster convergence than conventional approaches. Subsequently, optimized puncturing and shortening is studied for non-binary LDPC codes over binary input channels. Framework for the analysis of punctured/shortened non-binary LDPC codes over the BEC channel is developed, which enables the optimization of puncturing and shortening patterns. Insight from this analysis is used to develop algorithms for puncturing and shortening of non-binary LDPC codes at finite block lengths that perform well. It is confirmed that symbol-wise puncturing is generally bad and that bit-wise punctured non-binary LDPC codes can significantly outperform their binary counterparts, thus making them an attractive solution for future communication systems; both for error-correction and distributed compression.
Puncturing is also considered in the context of physical layer security. It is shown that puncturing can be used effectively for coding over the wiretap channel to hide the message bits from eavesdroppers. Further, it is shown how puncturing patterns can be optimized for enhanced secrecy. Asymptotic analysis confirms that eavesdroppers are forced to operate at BERs very close to 0.5, even if their signal is only slightly worse than that of the legitimate receivers. The proposed coding scheme is naturally applicable at finite block lengths and allows for efficient, almost-linear time encoding.
Finally, it is shown how error-correcting codes can be used to solve an open problem of compressing data encrypted with block ciphers such as AES. Coding schemes for multiple chaining modes are proposed and it is verified that considerable compression gains are attainable for binary sources.
