Stall Pattern Avoidance in Polynomial Product Codes

Carlo Condo, Francois Leduc-Primeau, Gabi Sarkis +2

Product codes are a concatenated error-correction scheme that has been often considered for applications requiring very low bit-error rates, which demand that the error floor be de…

A 9.52 dB NCG FEC scheme and 164 bits/cycle low-complexity product decoder architecture

Carlo Condo, Pascal Giard, François Leduc-Primeau +2

Powerful Forward Error Correction (FEC) schemes are used in optical communications to achieve bit-error rates below . These FECs follow one of two approaches: concatenati…

Hardware Decoders for Polar Codes: An Overview

Pascal Giard, Gabi Sarkis, Alexios Balatsoukas-Stimming +5

Polar codes are an exciting new class of error correcting codes that achieve the symmetric capacity of memoryless channels. Many decoding algorithms were developed and implemented,…

Fast Low-Complexity Decoders for Low-Rate Polar Codes

Pascal Giard, Alexios Balatsoukas-Stimming, Gabi Sarkis +2

Polar codes are capacity-achieving error-correcting codes with an explicit construction that can be decoded with low-complexity algorithms. In this work, we show how the state-of-t…

Flexible and Low-Complexity Encoding and Decoding of Systematic Polar Codes

Gabi Sarkis, Ido Tal, Pascal Giard +3

In this work, we present hardware and software implementations of flexible polar systematic encoders and decoders. The proposed implementations operate on polar codes of any length…

Fast List Decoders for Polar Codes

Gabi Sarkis, Pascal Giard, Alexander Vardy +2

Polar codes asymptotically achieve the symmetric capacity of memoryless channels, yet their error-correcting performance under successive-cancellation (SC) decoding for short and m…
