All material in this report which is not our own work has been identified and no material is included for which a degree has previously been conferred. Tobias Rosenqvist Joël Sloof Approved, Date of defense Advisor: Stefan Alfredsson Examiner: Kerstin Andersson iii Abstract In today’s society the ability to communicate with one another has grown, were a lot of focus is aimed towards speed in the telecommunication industry. For transmissions to become even faster, there are many ways to enhance transmission speeds of which error correction is one. Padding messages such that they are protected from noise, while using as few bits as possible and ensuring safe transmit is handled by error correction codes. Short codes with low complexity is a solution to faster transmission speeds. An error correction code which has gained a lot of attention since its first appearance in 2009 is Polar Codes. Polar Codes was chosen as the 3GPP standard for 5G control channel. The goal of the thesis is to develop and implement Polar Codes and rate matching according to the 3GPP standard 38.212.

Andriamanalimanana Advisor _ Dr. Saumendra Sengupta _ Dr. Scott Spetka 3 | P a g e 1 ABSTRACT Traditionally SDR has been implemented in C and C++ for execution speed and processor efficiency. Interpreted and high-level languages were considered too slow to handle the challenges of digital signal processing (DSP). The Julia programming language is a new language developed for scientific and mathematical purposes that is supposed to write like Python or MATLAB and execute like C or FORTRAN. Given the touted strengths of the Julia language, it bore investigating as to whether it was suitable for DSP. This project specifically addresses the applicability of Julia to forward error correction (FEC), a highly mathematical topic to which Julia should be well suited.

  • Convolutional Codes in Vss
    CONVOLUTIONAL CODES IN VSS . .. By: Dr. Kurt R. Matis Director of Systems Research SIMULATION OF CONVOLUTIONAL CODES IN VSS This document describes the modeling and simulation of short constraint- length convolutional codes used in conjunction with Viterbi decoding in the Visual System Simulator (VSS). After a brief review of the history and application of convolutional codes, a detailed description of VSS models for encoding/decoding of these codes is presented. Step-by-step examples illustrate how to construct simulations and analyze results. Convolutional Code Basics This note begins with some background information on the use of convolutional codes. The development of convolutional codes is discussed along with a history of important applications. This information is meant to provide a perspective on the selection of the convolutional code models that are provided in VSS. Transmission efficiency and reliability can be improved by encoding information digits in a way that creates an interdependence between symbols which are transmitted over a channel. At the receiving end, the interdependence can be exploited to detect or even correct transmission errors, provided erroneous symbols are not received too frequently. Such coding is called error-control coding and is shown in the configuration of Figure 1.

We adopted a high parallelism design using a layered decoding schedule to meet the high throughput requirement of 5G NR systems. Although the increase in parallelism can efficiently enhance the throughput, the hardware implementation required to support high parallelism is a significant hardware burden. To efficiently reduce the hardware burden, we used a grouping search rather than a sorter, which was used in the minimum finder with decoding performance loss. Additionally, we proposed a compensation scheme to improve the decoding per- formance loss by revising the probabilistic second minimum of a grouping search. The post-layout implementation of the proposed dual-mode LDPC decoder is based on the Taiwan Semiconduc- Citation: Lin, C.-H.; Wang, C.-X.; Lu, tor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) 40 nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) C.-K.

  • Performance Analysis and Design of MIMO-OFDM System Using Concatenated Forward Error Correction Codes
    J. Cent. South Univ.

PhD Scholar, School of Electrical Engineering, Department of Information Technology, AMET University, Tamil Nadu, Chennai 603112, India; 2. Department of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, Vidyalankar Institute of Technology, Mumbai-400037, Maharashtra, India © Central South University Press and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2017 Abstract: This work investigates the performance of various forward error correction codes, by which the MIMO-OFDM system is deployed. To ensure fair investigation, the performance of four modulations, namely, binary phase shift keying (BPSK), quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM)-16 and QAM-64 with four error correction codes (convolutional code (CC), Reed-Solomon code (RSC)+CC, low density parity check (LDPC)+CC, Turbo+CC) is studied under three channel models (additive white Guassian noise (AWGN), Rayleigh, Rician) and three different antenna configurations(2×2, 2×4, 4×4). The bit error rate (BER) and the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) are taken as the measures of performance. The binary data and the color image data are transmitted and the graphs are plotted for various modulations with different channels and error correction codes. Analysis on the performance measures confirm that the Turbo + CC code in 4×4 configurations exhibits better performance. Key words: bit error rate (BER); convolutional code (CC); forward error correction; peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR); Turbo code signal reliability as well as the multiple transmissions, 1 Introduction without extra radiation and spectrum bandwidth [6−9].
