Iterative decoding was not originally introduced as the solution to an optimization problem rendering the analysis of its convergence very difficult. In this paper, we investigate...
Although many stopping methods of iterative decoding have been discussed in the literatures extensively, many of them only focus on the solvable decoding. In this paper, we propos...
—Bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) is often the method of choice for multilevel transmission over fading channels. If relatively simple forward error-correction (FEC) codes...
There is a fundamental relationship between belief propagation and maximum a posteriori decoding. A decoding algorithm, which we call the Maxwell decoder, is introduced and provide...
