Turbo product codes (TPCs) have been integrated in several practical applications, and
hence, they have been considered widely in the literature where the main aim is improving …

We provide a performance analysis of a new class of serial concatenated convolutional
codes (SCCC) where the inner encoder can be punctured beyond the unitary rate. The …

In this paper, a novel class of serially concatenated convolutional codes (SCCCs) is
addressed. In contrast to standard SCCCs, where high rates are obtained by puncturing the …

(57) ABSTRACT A method and an apparatus of constructing hybrid Automatic Repeat
request (ARQ) systems using specific properties of the BCJR error correcting algorithm …

In this paper, the puncturing pattern design criteria for rate-compatible punctured turbo
(RCPT) codes are reviewed at first. Then the optimal puncturing pattern design problem for …

In this paper, we present a methodology to obtain a channel description tailored on
performance evaluation for incremental redundancy hybrid automatic repeat request …

Cooperation has been recently introduced to mitigate the impairments imposed by fading on
a communication channel. A cooperative transmission, in which the destination may …

In this paper, we propose a practical code design for a new relaying protocol, coined
Dynamic Selective Decode-and-Forward (D-SDF), in half-duplex slow fading Multiple …

The rest of the chapter is organized as follows: Section 3.1 introduces the broad topic of
relaying. In the next section, the analysis of a relay-assisted system is presented from the …

We propose a systematic design framework for optimal, low-complexity punctured multiple
parallel concatenated codes (MPCCs), based on minimizing the convergence threshold …
