Abstractó LDPC convolutional codes have been shown to be capable of achieving the same capacity-approaching performance as LDPC block codes with iterative message-passing decoding. However, traditional means of comparing block and... more
In this chapter, we discuss a number of codes for error control. Only block codes are treated here. Discussion on convolutional codes will be deferred until next chapter. After reviewing some information theoretic foundations of coding in... more
Poset and block metrics were introduced in recent years as alternative metrics to study error correcting codes. Poset-block codes were introduced in 2008, encompassing both poset and block metrics. In this paper, we study a family of such... more
OFDM with Quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) technique can be used for high speed optical applications. As the order of modulation increases, the bit error rate (BER) increases. Forward Error correction (FEC) coding like LDPC coding is... more
In many applications encryption/decryption of compressed images or videos is desired to be transparent to the compression decoder to maintain the file format, file size and content-relevant functionalities. We propose in this paper a... more
The 1999 AUVFest was held near Gulfport, Mississippi in a shallow-water area with depths between 3 and 8 meters. The acoustic channel was characterized by multipath spanning up to 20 msec and high noise levels from snapping shrimp.... more
This paper presents a Trellis Coded Modulation (TCM) scheme that is built from Linear Block Codes (LBC). These codes are referred to as Trellis Coded Block Codes (TCBC), and unlike conventional TCM, can be used for both discrete as well... more
