Based on a recent development in the area of error control coding, we introduce the notion of convolutional factor graphs (CFGs) as a new class of probabilistic graphical models. ...
— Current UWB systems apply convolutional codes as their channel coding scheme. For next generation systems LDPC codes are in discussion due to their outstanding communications p...
