DYNAMIC CODE SELECTION METHOD FOR CONTENT TRANSFER IN DEEP SPACE NETWORK A Dissertation presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Electrical Engineering The University of Mississippi by Rojina Adhikary May 2019 Copyright Rojina Adhikary 2019 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Space communications feature large round-trip time delays (for example, be- tween 6.5 and 44 minutes for Mars to Earth and return, depending on the actual distance between the two planets) and highly variable data error rates, for example, bit error rate (BER) of 10−5 is very common and even higher BERs on the order of 10−1 is observed in the deep-space environment. We develop a new content transfer protocol based on RaptorQ codes and turbo codes together with a real-time channel prediction model to maximize file transfer from space vehicles to the Earth stations. While turbo codes are used to correct channel errors, RaptorQ codes are applied to eliminate the need for negative-acknowledgment of the loss of any specific packet. To reduce the effect of channel variation, we develop a practical signal-to-noise ra- tio (SNR) prediction model that is used to periodically adjust the turbo encoder in distant source spacecraft. This new protocol, termed as dynamic code selection method (DCSM), is compared with two other methods: turbo based genie method (upper bound of DCSM performance) assuming that the channel condition is per- fectly known in advance and a static method in which a fixed turbo encoder is used throughout a communication pass. Simulation results demonstrate that the genie can increase telemetry channel throughput expressed in terms of the total number of successfully delivered files during a communication pass by about 20.3 % and DCSM achieves more than 99 % of genie, compared to the static approach being used currently. Logistic regression and neural networks are also used to develop two different SNR condition prediction models. Comparative performance analysis of these channel prediction models are conducted. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my adviser Prof. Daigle for the continuous support, guidance, and encouragement during the course of my masters and PhD studies.

The turbo code is based on memory- time-variant (1/3 ≤ R ≤ 1/96). Remarkably, a similar result is achieved recursive convolutional codes over high order fields. The resulting codes possess low rates and capacity-approaching performance, in the noncoherent detection framework as well. thus representing an appealing solution for spread spectrum We then focus on the specific case where the inner code is communications. The performance of the scheme is investigated either an order-q Hadamard code or a first order length-q Reed- on the additive white Gaussian noise channel with coherent and Muller (RM) code, due to their simple fast Hadamard trans- noncoherent detection via density evolution analysis.

  • Configurable and Scalable Turbo Decoder for 4G Wireless Decoder
    Configurable and Scalable Turbo Decoder for 4G Wireless Receivers Yang Sun Rice University, USA Joseph R. Cavallaro Rice University, USA Yuming Zhu Texas Instruments, USA Manish Goel Texas Instruments, USA ABSTRACT The increasing requirements of high data rates and quality of service (QoS) in fourth-generation (4G) wireless communication require the implementation of practical capacity approaching codes. In this chapter, the application of Turbo coding schemes that have recently been adopted in the IEEE 802.16e WiMax standard and 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) standard are reviewed. In order to process several 4G wireless standards with a common hardware module, a reconfigurable and scalable Turbo decoder architecture is presented. A parallel Turbo decoding scheme with scalable parallelism tailored to the target throughput is applied to support high data rates in 4G applications. High-level decoding parallelism is achieved by employing contention-free interleavers. A multi-banked memory structure and routing network among memories and MAP decoders are designed to operate at full speed with parallel interleavers. A new on-line address generation technique is introduced to support multiple Turbo interleaving patterns, which avoids the interleaver address memory that is typically necessary in the traditional designs. Design trade-offs in terms of area and power efficiency are analyzed for different parallelism and clock frequency goals. KEYWORDS Error Correction Codes, Turbo Codes, MAP Algorithm, BCJR Algorithm, Turbo Decoder, Interleaver, Wireless PHY, 4G Receiver, VLSI Architecture INTRODUCTION The approaching fourth-generation (4G) wireless systems are promising to support very high data rates from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps. This consequently leads to orders of complexity increases in a 4G wireless receiver.
