In this contribution, we show that the word error rate (WER) performance in the waterfall region of a randomly shortened and punctured low density parity check code can be accurately predicted from the WER performance of its finitelength mother …
We study Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes with iterative decoding on block-fading (BF) Relay Channels. We consider two users that employ coded cooperation, a variant of decode-and-forward with a smaller outage probability than the latter. An …
The outage probability limit is a fundamental lower bound on the word error rate of coded communications systems. It is mainly determined by two parameters: the diversity order and the coding gain. With linear precoding, the maximum achievable coding …
