FPGA implementation of low complexity LDPC iterative decoder

Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, proposed by Gallager, emerged as a class of codes which can yield very good performance on the additive white Gaussian noise channel as well as on the binary symmetric channel. LDPC codes have gained lots of importance due to their capacity achieving property and excellent performance in the noisy channel. Belief propagation (BP) algorithm and its approximations, most notably min-sum, are popular iterative decoding algorithms used for LDPC and turbo codes. The trade-off between the hardware complexity and the decoding throughput is a critical factor in the implementation of the practical decoder. This article presents introduction to LDPC codes and its various decoding algorithms followed by realisation of LDPC decoder by using simplified message passing algorithm and partially parallel decoder architecture. Simplified message passing algorithm has been proposed for trade-off between low decoding complexity and decoder performance. It greatly reduces the routing and check node complexity of the decoder. Partially parallel decoder architecture possesses high speed and reduced complexity. The improved design of the decoder possesses a maximum symbol throughput of 92.95 Mbps and a maximum of 18 decoding iterations. The article presents implementation of 9216 bits, rate-1/2, (3, 6) LDPC decoder on Xilinx XC3D3400A device from Spartan-3A DSP family.     

LDPC-based iterative joint source-channel decoding for JPEG2000.

A framework is proposed for iterative joint source-channel decoding of JPEG2000 codestreams. At the encoder, JPEG2000 is used to perform source coding with certain error-resilience (ER) modes, and LDPC codes are used to perform channel coding. During decoding, the source decoder uses the ER modes to identify corrupt sections of the codestream and provides this information to the channel decoder. Decoding is carried out jointly in an iterative fashion. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method requires fewer iterations and improves overall system performance.     

Iterative decoding of serially concatenated arithmetic and channel codes with JPEG 2000 applications.

In this paper, an innovative joint-source channel coding scheme is presented. The proposed approach enables iterative soft decoding of arithmetic codes by means of a soft-in soft- out decoder based on suboptimal search and pruning of a binary tree. An error-resilient arithmetic coder with a forbidden symbol is used in order to improve the performance of the joint source/channel scheme. The performance in the case of transmission across the AWGN channel is evaluated in terms of word error probability and compared to a traditional separated approach. The interleaver gain, the convergence property of the system, and the optimal source/channel rate allocation are investigated. Finally, the practical relevance of the proposed joint decoding approach is demonstrated within the JPEG 2000 coding standard. In particular, an iterative channel and JPEG 2000 decoder is designed and tested in the case of image transmission across the AWGN channel.     

Doubly Iterative Equalization of Continuous-Phase Modulation

In this paper, a doubly iterative receiver is proposed for joint turbo equalization, demodulation, and decoding of coded binary continuous-phase modulation (CPM) in multipath fading channels. The proposed receiver consists of three soft-input soft-output (SISO) blocks: a front-end soft-information-aided minimum mean square error (MMSE) equalizer followed by a CPM demodulator and a back-end channel decoder. The MMSE equalizer, combined with an a priori soft-interference canceler (SIC) and an a posteriori probability mapper, forms a SISO processor suitable for iterative processing that considers discrete-time CPM symbols which belong to a finite alphabet. The SISO CPM demodulator and the SISO channel decoder are both implemented by the a posteriori probability algorithm. The proposed doubly iterative receiver has a central demodulator coupled with both the front-end equalizer and the back-end channel decoder. A few back-end demodulation/decoding iterations are performed for each equalization iteration so as to improve the a priori information for the equalizer. As presented in the extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) chart analysis and simulation results for different multipath fading channels, this provides not only faster convergence to low bit error rates, but also lower computational complexity.

Iterative joint source-channel decoding of variable-length codes using residual source redundancy

We present a novel symbol-based soft-input a posteriori probability (APP) decoder for packetized variable-length encoded source indexes transmitted over wireless channels where the residual redundancy after source encoding is exploited for error protection. In combination with a mean-square or maximum APP estimation of the reconstructed source data, the whole decoding process is close to optimal. Furthermore, solutions for the proposed APP decoder with reduced complexity are discussed and compared to the near-optimal solution. When, in addition, channel codes are employed for protecting the variable-length encoded data, an iterative source-channel decoder can be obtained in the same way as for serially concatenated codes, where the proposed APP source decoder then represents one of the two constituent decoders. The simulation results show that this iterative decoding technique leads to substantial error protection for variable-length encoded correlated source signals, especially, when they are transmitted over highly corrupted channels.
