A High-Speed Low-Complexity Concatenated BCH Decoder Architecture for 100?Gb/s Optical Communications

This paper presents a two-iteration concatenated Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) code and its high-speed low-complexity two-parallel decoder architecture for 100 Gb/s optical communications. The proposed architecture features a very high data processing rate as well as excellent error correction capability. A low-complexity syndrome computation architecture and a high-speed dual-processing pipelined simplified inversonless Berlekamp-Massey (Dual-pSiBM) key equation solver architecture were applied to the proposed concatenated BCH decoder with an aim of implementing a high-speed low-complexity decoder architecture. Two-parallel processing allows the decoder to achieve a high data processing rate required for 100 Gb/s optical communication systems. Also, the proposed two-iteration concatenated BCH code structure with block interleaving methods allows the decoder to achieve 8.91dB of net coding gain performance at 10⁻¹⁵ decoder output bit error rate to compensate for serious transmission quality degradation. Thus, it has potential applications in next generation forward error correction schemes for 100 Gb/s optical communications.

Performance analysis of concatenated BCH and convolutional coded OFDM system

ABSTRACT

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a widely used technique for wireless communications. But uncoded OFDM is not sufficient by itself, that is why channel coding is included to increase the system performance. In this study, concatenated Bose Chaudhuri Hocquenghem (BCH) and Convolutional Coded (CC) OFDM system is investigated for multipath fading channel with Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN). The simulation results show that the proposed concatenated code needs lower Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) when compared with single BCH code, single convolutional code and even with other concatenated systems. Throughout the simulations BCH coding is performed with 128, 256, 512 Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) lengths; whereas convolutional coding is performed with 1/2, 1/3 coding rates. Furthermore, interleavers are added to the system to prevent the burst errors that occur over the channel. With the proposed system, the best result is obtained by using BCH(511,340) and CC(3,1,7) concatenation which is 8.2 dB SNR value for 10^?3 Bit Error Rate (BER). This result is very close to ideal AWGN channel value, which is 8 dB for 10^?3 BER.     

一种高速长距离光通信系统中QC-LDPC码的构造方法

A novel decoding algorithm based on the hierarchical reliable strategy for SCG-LDPC codes in optical communications

An effective hierarchical reliable belief propagation （HRBP） decoding algorithm is proposed according to the struc- tural characteristics of systematically constructed Gallager low-density parity-check （SCG-LDPC） codes. The novel decoding algorithm combines the layered iteration with the reliability judgment, and can greatly reduce the number of the variable nodes involved in the subsequent iteration process and accelerate the convergence rate. The result of simulation for SCG-LDPC（3969,3720） code shows that the novel HRBP decoding algorithm can greatly reduce the computing amount at the condition of ensuring the performance compared with the traditional belief propagation （BP） algorithm. The bit error rate （BER） of the HRBP algorithm is considerable at the threshold value of 15, but in the sub- sequent iteration process, the number of the variable nodes for the HRBP algorithm can be reduced by about 70% at the high signal-to-noise ratio （SNR） compared with the BP algorithm. When the threshold value is further increased, the HRBP algorithm will gradually degenerate into the layered-BP algorithm, but at the BER of 10-7 and the maximal iteration number of 30, the net coding gain （NCG） of the HRBP algorithm is 0.2 dB more than that of the BP algo- rithm, and the average iteration times can be reduced by about 40% at the high SNR. Therefore, the novel HRBP de- coding algorithm is more suitable for optical communication systems.

Performance of CO-OFDM system with RS-Turbo concatenated code

In this paper, the RS-Turbo concatenated code is applied to coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) system. RS(186,166,8) and Turbo code with code rate of 1/2 are employed for RS-Turbo concatenated code. Two decoding algorithms, which are Max-Log-MAP algorithm and Log-MAP algorithm, are adopted for Turbo decoding, and the iteration Berlekamp-Massey (BM) algorithm is adopted for RS decoding. The simulation results show that the bit error rate (BER) performance of CO-OFDM system with RS-Turbo concatenated code is significantly improved at high optical signal to noise ratio (OSNR), and the iteration number is reduced compared with that of the Turbo coded system. Furthermore, when the Max-Log-MAP algorithm is adopted for Turbo decoding, the transmission distance of CO-OFDM system with RS-Turbo concatenated code can reach about 400 km without error, while that of the Turbo coded system can only reach about 240 km when BER is lower than 10-4 order of magnitude.     

A novel construction scheme of QC-LDPC codes based on the RU algorithm for optical transmission systems

A novel lower-complexity construction scheme of quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check (QC-LDPC) codes for optical transmission systems is proposed based on the structure of the parity-check matrix for the Richardson-Urbanke (RU) algorithm. Furthermore, a novel irregular QC-LDPC(4 288, 4 020) code with high code-rate of 0.937 is constructed by this novel construction scheme. The simulation analyses show that the net coding gain (NCG) of the novel irregular QC-LDPC(4 288,4 020) code is respectively 2.08 dB, 1.25 dB and 0.29 dB more than those of the classic RS(255, 239) code, the LDPC(32 640, 30 592) code and the irregular QC-LDPC(3 843, 3 603) code at the bit error rate (BER) of 10-6. The irregular QC-LDPC(4 288, 4 020) code has the lower encoding/decoding complexity compared with the LDPC(32 640, 30 592) code and the irregular QC-LDPC(3 843, 3 603) code. The proposed novel QC-LDPC(4 288, 4 020) code can be more suitable for the increasing development requirements of high-speed optical transmission systems.     

光通信中基于BCJR的BCH译码算法研究

首先从理论上分析了硬判决译码算法和软判决译码算法的性能然后对BCH(Bose,Ray-Chaudhuri,Hocquenghem)码的网格结构以及BCJR(Bahl,Cocke,Jelinek and Raviv)算法进行了详细地分析及推导。实验结果表明,在光信道环境中,在误比特率为10-5时,当仅提高最小汉明距离码率相同或者仅减小码率最小汉明距离相同时,BCJR算法相对于硬判决译码算法的编码增益分别在之前的编码增益基础上又增加了0.15dB和0.25dB。因此设计级联码方案时,应尽可能选择纠错能力较大的内码。此外也可以采用适当增加内码的冗余度相应减小外码的冗余度的方法,在获得更高的编码增益的同时保证整个系统的带宽利用率不变。
