Optimized Soft-Aided Decoding of OFEC and Staircase Codes

Lukas Rapp, Sisi Miao, Laurent Schmalen

We propose a novel soft-aided hard-decision decoding algorithm for general product-like codes. It achieves error correcting performance similar to that of a soft-decision turbo dec…

Performance Analysis of Generalized Product Codes with Irregular Degree Distribution

Sisi Miao, Jonathan Mandelbaum, Lukas Rapp +2

This paper investigates the theoretical analysis of intrinsic message passing decoding for generalized product codes (GPCs) with irregular degree distributions, a generalization of…

Structural Optimization of Factor Graphs for Symbol Detection via Continuous Clustering and Machine Learning

Lukas Rapp, Luca Schmid, Andrej Rode +1

We propose a novel method to optimize the structure of factor graphs for graph-based inference. As an example inference task, we consider symbol detection on linear inter-symbol in…

Improved Soft-aided Decoding of Product Codes with Adaptive Performance-Complexity Trade-off

Sisi Miao, Lukas Rapp, Laurent Schmalen

We propose an improved soft-aided decoding scheme for product codes that approaches the decoding performance of conventional soft-decision TPD with only a 0.2 dB gap while keeping…

Improved Soft-aided Decoding of Product Codes with Dynamic Reliability Scores

Sisi Miao, Lukas Rapp, Laurent Schmalen

Products codes (PCs) are conventionally decoded with efficient iterative bounded-distance decoding (iBDD) based on hard-decision channel outputs which entails a performance loss co…

Error-and-erasure Decoding of Product and Staircase Codes with Simplified Extrinsic Message Passing

Sisi Miao, Lukas Rapp, Laurent Schmalen

The decoding performance of product codes and staircase codes based on iterative bounded-distance decoding (iBDD) can be improved with the aid of a moderate amount of soft informat…

Improved Soft-aided Error-and-erasure Decoding of Product Codes with Dynamic Reliability Scores

Sisi Miao, Lukas Rapp, Laurent Schmalen

We propose a novel soft-aided low-complexity decoder for product codes based on dynamic reliability scores and error-and-erasure decoding. We observe coding gains of up to 1.2 dB c…

Error-and-Erasure Decoding of Product and Staircase Codes

Lukas Rapp, Laurent Schmalen

High-rate product codes (PCs) and staircase codes (SCs) are ubiquitous codes in high-speed optical communication achieving near-capacity performance on the binary symmetric channel…
