—Systematic Luby Transform (SLT) codes constitute rateless codes, which are capable of adaptively adjusting their code rate depending on the channel quality without explicit chan...
– Luby Transform codes (LT) were originally designed for the Binary Erasure Channel (BEC) encountered owing to randomly dropped packets in the statistical multiplexing aided clas...
It has been known since [Zyablov and Pinsker 1982] that a random q-ary code of rate 1 − Hq(ρ) − ε (where 0 < ρ < 1 − 1/q, ε > 0 and Hq(·) is the q-ary entropy ...
The erasure resilience of rateless codes, such as Luby-Transform (LT) codes, makes them particularly suitable to a wide variety of loss-prone wireless and sensor network applicati...

Abstract. This paper evaluates the performance of two seminal rateless erasure codes, LT Codes and Online Codes. Their properties make them appropriate for coping with communicatio...
