Raptor Codes

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi

This monograph describes the theory behind Raptor codes, and elucidates elements of the processes behind the design of two of the most prominent members of this class of codes: R10 and RaptorQ (RQ). R10 has already been adopted by a number of standards' bo ...

Exchange of Limits: Why Iterative Decoding Works

Rüdiger Urbanke, Satish Babu Korada

We consider communication over binary-input memoryless output-symmetric channels using low-density parity-check codes and message-passing decoding. The asymptotic (in the length) performance of such a combination for a fixed number of iterations is given b ...

Degree Distribution Optimization in Raptor Network Coding

Pascal Frossard, Nikolaos Thomos

We consider a multi-source delivery system, where Raptor coding at sources and linear network coding in overlay nodes work in concert for efficient data delivery in networks with diversity. Such a combination permits to increase throughput and loss resilie ...

Universal Rateless Codes From Coupled LT Codes

Rüdiger Urbanke, Vahid Aref

It was recently shown that spatial coupling of individual low-density parity-check codes improves the belief-propagation threshold of the coupled ensemble essentially to the maximum a posteriori threshold of the underlying ensemble. We study the performanc ...

Distributed sensor failure detection in sensor networks

Pascal Frossard, Nikolaos Thomos, Tamara Tosic

We investigate the problem of distributed sensors' failure detection in networks with a small number of defective sensors, whose measurements differ significantly from neighboring sensor measurements. Defective sensors are represented by non-zero values in ...

A Novel Conflict-Free Memory and Processor Architecture for DVB-T2 LDPC Decoding

Alberto Jimenez Pacheco

In this paper, we present a flexible architecture for an LDPC decoder that fully exploits the structure of the codes defined in the DVB-T2 standard (Digital Video Broadcasting - Second Generation Terrestrial). We propose a processor and memory architecture ...

Degraded multicasting with network coding over the combination network

Christina Fragouli, Shirin Saeedi Bidokhti

In this paper, we give a characterization of the rate region for the degraded two message set problem, applied to a combination network with erasure channels. We also provide an algorithm that uses topological information in order to deliver the two messag ...

Practical code design for compute-and-forward

Michael Christoph Gastpar

The Compute-and-Forward approach has been proven to be very beneficial for communication over Gaussian networks. While the theoretical results are promising, it is still not completely understood how to best apply this scheme in practice. The objective of ...

Optimal filtering of an incremental second-order MASH11 sigma-delta modulator

Maher Kayal, Sylvain Maréchal, François Krummenacher

This paper describes an optimal filter design procedure for a cascaded sigma-delta modulator, starting with a block schematic of a second-order topology and deriving step by step the optimal decoder. The presented filter enhances the resolution of the MASH ...
