In this paper, the channel decoder promising reliable data retrieving in noisy holographic channel has been developed for holographic WORM(write once read many) system. It covers various DSP(digital signal processing) blocks, such as align mark detector, adaptive channel equalizer, modulation decoder and ECC(error correction code) decoder. The specific schemes of DSP are designed to reduce the effect of noises in holographic WORM(H-WORM) system, particularly in prototype of DAEWOO electronics(DEPROTO). For real time data retrieving, the channel decoder is redesigned for FPGA(field programmable gate array) based hardware, where DSP blocks calculate in parallel sense with memory buffers between blocks and controllers for driving peripherals of FPGA. As an input source of the experiments, MPEG2 TS(transport stream) data was used and recorded to DEPROTO system. During retrieving, the CCD(charge coupled device), capturing device of DEPROTO, detects retrieved images and transmits signals of them to the FPGA of hardware channel decoder. Finally, the output data stream of the channel decoder was transferred to the MPEG decoding board for monitoring video signals. The experimental results showed the error corrected BER(bit error rate) of less than $10^{-9}$, from the raw BER of DEPROTO, about $10^{-3}$. With the developed hardware channel decoder, the real-time video demonstration was possible during the experiments. The operating clock of the FPGA was 60 MHz, of which speed was capable of decoding up to 120 mega channel bits per sec.

In this paper, we propose an image compression scheme which uses a demosaicking network and a channel-wise decoder in the decoding network. For the demosaicing network, we use as the input a colored mosaiced pattern rather than the well-known Bayer pattern. The use of a colored mosaiced pattern results in the mosaiced image containing a greater amount of information pertaining to the original image. Therefore, it contributes to result in a better color reconstruction. The channel-wise decoder is composed of multiple decoders where each decoder is responsible for each channel in the color image, i.e., the R, G, and B channels. The encoder and decoder are both implemented by wavelet based auto-encoders for better performance. Experimental results verify that the separated channel-wise decoders and the colored mosaic pattern produce a better reconstructed color image than a single decoder. When combining the colored CFA with the multi-decoder, the PSNR metric exhibits an increase of over 2dB for three-times compression and approximately 0.6dB for twelve-times compression compared to the Bayer CFA with a single decoder. Therefore, the compression rate is also increased with the proposed method than with the method using a single decoder on the Bayer patterned mosaic image.

A Viterbi Decoder for IMT2000 Mobile Station based on cdma200 is implemented in this paper. There are fundamental traffic channel, supplemental traffic channel for user data transmission and dedicated control channel for signal transmission in cdma2000. This decoder can decode these channels simultaneously, and support l/2, l/3, 1/4 code rate decoding. In case of fundamental channel decoding, it needs about 1100 logic cells and 30000 bit memory block.

In this paper, a novel maximum a posterion (MAP) estimation for the channel decoding of H.264 codes in the presence of transmission error is presented. Arithmetic codes with a forbidden symbol and trellis search techniques are employed in order to estimate the best transmitted. And, there has been growing interest of communication, the research about transmission of exact data is increasing. Unlike the case of voice transmission, noise has a fatal effect on the image transmission. The reason is that video coding standards have used the variable length coding. So, only one bit error affects the all video data compressed before resynchronization. For reasons of that, channel needs the channel codec, which is robust to channel error. But, usual channel decoder corrects the error only by channel error probability. So, designing source codec and channel codec, Instead of separating them, it is tried to combine them jointly. And many researches used the information of source redundancy In received data. But, these methods do not match to the video coding standards, because video ceding standards use not only one symbol but also many symbols in same data sequence. In this thesis, We try to design combined source-channel codec that is compatible with video coding standards. This MAP decoder is proposed by adding semantic structure and semantic constraint of video coding standards to the method using redundancy of the MAP decoders proposed previously. Then, We get the better performance than usual channel coder's.

In this paper, we propose a receiver that combines a channel detector with a channel decoder to retrieve information from ISI and AWGN in an iteratively manner. The receiver, evolving from a system of a PRML detector and a RS decoder, consists of a SOVA detector followed by a LDPC decoder and has them exchange information iteratively. Rather than handling extrinsic reliabilities explicitly as in Turbo equalization, we take hard-decision values from the LDPC decoder and mix them with the channel output in a certain ratio as input for SOVA. The scheme, simply modified to the one-way structure of a SOVA and a LDPC decoder, shows improved performance with iteration numbers as well as the combining ratio of the channel output and the feedback output. We additionally analyze the receiver with a simple theoretical model and present some valuable properties.

This paper presents an implementation method of Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) decoder using a general-purpose multicore Digital Signal Processor (DSP), TMS320C6670. Although the DSP provides some useful coprocessors such as turbo decoder, fast Fourier transformer, Viterbi Coprocessor, Bit Rate Coprocessor etc., it is specific to the base station platform implementation not the mobile terminal platform implementation. This paper shows an implementation method of the LTE-A PDSCH decoder using programmable DSP cores as well as the coprocessors of Fast Fourier Transformer and turbo decoder. First, it uses the coprocessor supported by the TMS320C6670, which can be used for PDSCH implementation. Second, we propose a core programming method using DSP optimization method for block diagram of PDSCH that can not use coprocessor. Through the implementation, we have verified a real-time decoding feasibility for the LTE-A downlink physical channel using test vectors which have been generated from LTE-A Reference Measurement Channel (RMC) Waveform R.6.

This paper presents a low-complexity triple-error-correcting parallel Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) decoder architecture and its efficient design techniques. A novel modified step-by-step (m-SBS) decoding algorithm, which significantly reduces computational complexity, is proposed for the parallel BCH decoder. In addition, a determinant calculator and a error locator are proposed to reduce hardware complexity. Specifically, a sharing syndrome factor calculator and a self-error detection scheme are proposed. The multi-channel multi-parallel BCH decoder using the proposed m-SBS algorithm and design techniques have considerably less hardware complexity and latency than those using a conventional algorithms. For a 16-channel 4-parallel (1020, 990) BCH decoder over GF($2^{12}$), the proposed design can lead to a reduction in complexity of at least 23 % compared to conventional architecttures.

1967년 Andrew J. Viterbi에 의해 처음 제안된 Viterbi 알고리즘은 길쌈부호(convolution code)의 대표적인 복호방법으로 현재 통신 기술 중에서 가장 많이 쓰이는 것 중에 하나이다. Viterbi decoder는 사용되는 시스템의 사양에 따라 에러 수정 능력이 다른데 통신 channel 상의 오류뿐만 아니라 Viterbi decoder내부에 있는 메모리에서 발생하는 오류도 Viterbi decoder의 에러 수정 능력에 영향을 준다. 본 논문에서는 일반적으로 많이 확인되었던 channel상의 오류와 함께 Viterbi decoder내부에 있는 메모리에서 오류가 발생했을 때 복.부호기의 사양에 따른 에러정정능력을 분석하였다.

Conventional pragmatic TCMs need sector phase quantizer to apply Viterbi decoder which uses 3-bit soft decision. A symbol transformation applied to the incoming I-channel and Q-channel symbols allows to use Viterbi decoder without sector phase quantizer. We analyzed structure and performance of proposed decoder, and applied it to the turbo decoder. We know that the performance of proposed decoder is better than that of conventional decoder by 1 ［㏈］because of increasing of Euclidean distance.
