Since the introduction of coherent transponders, forward error correction based on soft
decision is now established in optical communication. In this paper, we give a tutorial-style …

Client-side optics are facing an ever-increasing upgrading pace, driven by upcoming 5G
related services and datacenter applications. The demand for a single lane data rate is soon …

In this paper, we discuss and present some recent advances in the field of error correcting
codes and discuss their applicability for lightwave transmission systems. We introduce …

We report on an on–off keying intensity-modulation and direct-detection C-band optical
transceiver capable of addressing all datacenter interconnect environments at well beyond …

Product codes (PCs) protect a 2-D array of bits using short component codes. Assuming
transmission over the binary symmetric channel, the decoding is commonly performed by …

In this paper, we introduce the concept of spatially coupled turbo-like codes (SC-TCs) as the
spatial coupling of a number of turbo-like code ensembles. In particular, we consider the …

We present an approach for unsupervised segmentation of natural and textural images
based on active contour, differential geometry and information theoretical concept. More …

We propose a novel binary message passing decoding algorithm for product-like codes
based on bounded distance decoding (BDD) of the component codes. The algorithm …

This paper presents a product coding scheme based on binary images of Reed-Solomon
(RS) codes and single-parity-check (SPC) codes for high-speed communications. Utilizing …
