Spatially-Coupled Precoded Rateless Codes with Bounded Degree Achieve the Capacity of BEC under BP decoding
arXiv:1401.7288
Abstract
Raptor codes are known as precoded rateless codes that achieve the capacity of BEC. However the maximum degree of Raptor codes needs to be unbounded to achieve the capacity. In this paper, we prove that spatially-coupled precoded rateless codes achieve the capacity with bounded degree under BP decoding.
