Efficient Probabilistic Parity Shaping for Irregular Repeat-Accumulate LDPC Codes

Diego Lentner, Thomas Wiegart, Richard D. Wesel

Algorithms are presented that efficiently shape the parity bits of systematic irregular repeat-accumulate (IRA) low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes by following the sequential en…

Feedback Communication Over the BSC with Sparse Feedback times and Causal Encoding

Amaael Antonini, Rita Gimelshein, Richard D. Wesel

Posterior matching uses variable-length encoding of the message controlled by noiseless feedback of the received symbols to achieve high rates for short average blocklengths. Tradi…

LDPC Decoding with Degree-Specific Neural Message Weights and RCQ Decoding

Linfang Wang, Caleb Terrill, Richard Wesel +1

Recently, neural networks have improved MinSum message-passing decoders for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes by multiplying or adding weights to the messages, where the weight…

ELF Codes: Concatenated Codes with an Expurgating Linear Function as the Outer Code

Richard Wesel, Amaael Antonini, Linfang Wang +3

An expurgating linear function (ELF) is a linear outer code that disallows the low-weight codewords of the inner code. ELFs can be designed either to maximize the minimum distance…

Systematic Transmission With Fountain Parity Checks for Erasure Channels With Stop Feedback

Hengjie Yang, Richard D. Wesel

In this paper, we present new achievability bounds on the maximal achievable rate of variable-length stop-feedback (VLSF) codes operating over a binary erasure channel (BEC) at a f…

Probabilistic Shaping for Asymmetric Channels and Low-Density Parity-Check Codes

Thomas Wiegart, Linfang Wang, Diego Lentner +1

An algorithm is proposed to encode low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes into codewords with a non-uniform distribution. This enables power-efficient signalling for asymmetric chan…
