This book was released on 2007 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis we examine two different rateless codes and create a rateless unequal error protection code, all for the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. The two rateless codes are examined through both analysis and simulation with the hope of developing a better understanding of how the codes will perform and pushing the codes further toward implementation. After analyzing and simulating the rateless codes by themselves, we compare using a rateless code to two different forms of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ), namely Chase combining HARQ and incremental redundancy HARQ. We find that the rateless codes compare favorably to both forms of HARQ. In addition, we develop a code that has both rateless and unequal error protection (UEP) properties. A rateless code adapts to the quality of the channel and achieves capacity but all of the information bits are decoded at the same time and thus the bitstream cannot be prioritized. In addition, if only a finite number of retransmissions is allowed, the range of available rates that a rateless code can provide is limited. In contrast, a UEP code provides a prioritization of the bitstream, and an arbitrary range of rates but does not achieve capacity. The rateless UEP code, or RUEP code for short, provides the prioritization of a bitstream that UEP provides, and also adapts to the quality of the channel as a rateless code does. The RUEP code provides bitstream prioritization while being more efficient than a traditional UEP code and is capacity achieving for some channel realizations. In addition, the RUEP code provides a larger range of available rates than a rateless code when only a finite number of retransmissions is allowed.

Download or read book Universal Codes for Parallel Gaussian Channels written by Maryam Modir Shanechi and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis we study the design of universal codes for parallel Gaussian channels with 2 sub-channels present. We study the universality both in terms of the uncertainty in the relative quality of the two sub-channels for a fixed maximum rate, C*, and in terms of the uncertainty of the achievable maximum rate. In our architecture, we will convert the parallel Gaussian channel into a set of scalar Gaussian channels and use good base codes designed for the corresponding scalar channel in the coding schemes. In Chapter 2, a universal layered code with deterministic dithers is developed. The code is repeated across the two sub-channels with possibly different dithers. Symbols in each of the layer codewords can be combined using unitary transformations of dimension, m. A minimum mean squared error (MMSE) receiver combined with successive cancellation is used for decoding. We show that increasing m does not improve the efficiency. The efficiency increases by adding more layers up to a certain number and after that it saturates. We find an expression for this saturation efficiency. We show that partial CSIT improves the efficiency significantly. At the end we compare the performance of maximal ratio combining (MRC) and MMSE receivers and show that they are close in the coding scheme with no CSIT. In Chapter 3, we design an alternative universal code and extend it to be rateless. This is a sub-block structured code symmetric with respect to all layers that gets repeated across the two sub-channels and in time using i.i.d. Bernoulli (1/2) dithers. The decoder uses an MRC receiver combined with successive cancellation. We prove that in the limit of large L when L is increased exponentially with C*, the code is capacity achieving. We perform efficiency analyses when L is scaled linearly with C* and derive upper and lower bounds on the efficiency. We also show that the scheme has high efficiencies for practical ranges of C* using a low-rate good base code. We discuss the unknown time-varying behavior of the scheme and at the end briefly discuss the use of faster than Nyquist signaling to enable the scheme to have a high efficiency for higher C* values.
Download or read book Scalable Video Streaming with Fountain Codes written by Sajid Nazir and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-17 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The area of video streaming has seen tremendous growth in recent years due to the enhanced processing power, better compression algorithms, and increased bandwidths in emerging networks. Most of the latest communication standards are IP based, whereas the Internet provides only a best-effort service model and the priority-based service models are only gradually being realized for real-time data. Current research attempts to overcome the effects of video packet losses and delays to provide a better user experience. Multimedia communication over wireless channels is especially difficult due to the fact that the channel conditions are generally poor, in addition to the rapid changes that can occur in the channel. Fountain codes can address some of the challenges in this research area, and can also be combined in innovative ways with the different importance classes of compressed video data. Considering the importance of the issues highlighted above, this book focuses on designing error correction techniques to exploit different importance classes in compressed video data for designing adaptive solutions to support multimedia traffic over wireless channels. This book represents a useful reference point for researchers, academics, research students, and industry developers interested in utilizing error correction codes for ensuring better video quality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unparalleled learning tool and guide to error correction coding Error correction coding techniques allow the detection and correction of errors occurring during the transmission of data in digital communication systems. These techniques are nearly universally employed in modern communication systems, and are thus an important component of the modern information economy. Error Correction Coding: Mathematical Methods and Algorithms provides a comprehensive introduction to both the theoretical and practical aspects of error correction coding, with a presentation suitable for a wide variety of audiences, including graduate students in electrical engineering, mathematics, or computer science. The pedagogy is arranged so that the mathematical concepts are presented incrementally, followed immediately by applications to coding. A large number of exercises expand and deepen students' understanding. A unique feature of the book is a set of programming laboratories, supplemented with over 250 programs and functions on an associated Web site, which provides hands-on experience and a better understanding of the material. These laboratories lead students through the implementation and evaluation of Hamming codes, CRC codes, BCH and R-S codes, convolutional codes, turbo codes, and LDPC codes. This text offers both "classical" coding theory-such as Hamming, BCH, Reed-Solomon, Reed-Muller, and convolutional codes-as well as modern codes and decoding methods, including turbo codes, LDPC codes, repeat-accumulate codes, space time codes, factor graphs, soft-decision decoding, Guruswami-Sudan decoding, EXIT charts, and iterative decoding. Theoretical complements on performance and bounds are presented. Coding is also put into its communications and information theoretic context and connections are drawn to public key cryptosystems. Ideal as a classroom resource and a professional reference, this thorough guide will benefit electrical and computer engineers, mathematicians, students, researchers, and scientists.
