Improved decoding of second-order Reed-Muller codes

Rüdiger Urbanke, Kirill Ivanov

In this paper, we consider low-complexity decoding of second-order Reed-Muller codes. A class of polynomial-time algorithms, based on the projections onto first-order codes, is studied. An old representative of this class, originally developed for binary s ...

Optimal Age over Erasure Channels

Emre Telatar, Elie Najm, Rajai Nasser

Given a source that produces a letter every T-s seconds and an erasure channel that can be used every T-c seconds, we ask what is the coding strategy that minimizes the time-average "age of information" that an observer of the channel output incurs. We wil ...

The Velocity of the Propagating Wave for Spatially Coupled Systems With Applications to LDPC Codes

Nicolas Macris, Rafah El-Khatib

We consider the dynamics of message passing for spatially coupled codes and, in particular, the set of density evolution equations that tracks the profile of decoding errors along the spatial direction of coupling. It is known that, for suitable boundary c ...

Almost Optimal Scaling of Reed-Muller Codes on BEC and BSC Channels

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani, Shrinivas Kudekar, Yury Polyanskiy

Consider a binary linear code of length N, minimum distance d(min), transmission over the binary erasure channel with parameter 0 < epsilon < 1 or the binary symmetric channel with parameter 0 < epsilon < 1/2, and block-MAP decoding. It was shown by Tillic ...

Coding for Communications and Secrecy

Mani Bastaniparizi

Shannon, in his landmark 1948 paper, developed a framework for characterizing the fundamental limits of information transmission. Among other results, he showed that reliable communication over a channel is possible at any rate below its capacity. In 2008, ...

From Polar to Reed-Muller Codes

Marco Mondelli

The year 2016, in which I am writing these words, marks the centenary of Claude Shannon, the father of information theory. In his landmark 1948 paper "A Mathematical Theory of Communication", Shannon established the largest rate at which reliable communica ...

Hardware Decoders for Polar Codes: An Overview

Andreas Peter Burg, Pascal Giard

Polar codes are an exciting new class of error correcting codes that achieve the symmetric capacity of memoryless channels. Many decoding algorithms were developed and implemented, addressing various application requirements: from error-correction performa ...

Erasure Schemes Using Generalized Polar Codes: Zero-Undetected-Error Capacity and Performance Trade-offs

Rajai Nasser

We study the performance of generalized polar (GP) codes when they are used for coding schemes involving erasure. GP codes are a family of codes which contains, among others, the standard polar codes of Arikan and Reed-Muller codes. We derive a closed form ...

Asynchronous Decoding of LDPC Codes over BEC

Amin Karbasi, Amir Hesam Salavati, Saeid Haghighatshoar

LDPC codes are typically decoded by running a synchronous message passing algorithm over the corresponding bipartite factor graph (made of variable and check nodes). More specifically, each synchronous round consists of 1) updating all variable nodes based ...
