This thesis addresses the problem of information transmission over noisy channels. In 1993, Berrou, Glavieux and Thitimajshima discovered Turbo-codes. These codes made it possible to achieve a very good performance at low decoding complexity. In hindsight, ...
We show that the finite-length scaling parameters for irregular LDPC codes when used over the binary erasure channel can be computed without resorting to ``covariance evolution''. We provide simple expressions that can be evaluated using solely the degree ...
We analyze iterative coding for the frame-synchronous binary-input discrete-time Gaussian multiple access channel. Using the method of Density Evolution, we optimize degree distributions to exhibit code ensembles whose iterative decoding thresholds are onl ...
In this paper we investigate the behaviour of iteratively decoded low-density parity-check codes over the binary erasure channel in the so-called "waterfall region". We show that, according to a simplified model, the performance curves in this region follo ...
