In this paper, the hybrid ARQ scheme, which is incorporated the selective-repeat ARQ system with the finite receiver buffer and the single-error-correcting and double-error-detecting(63.56) cyclic Hamming code system, has been investigated. As a result of simulation, the proposed hybrid ARQ scheme shows that that throughput efficiencies are improved by one error correction, and that the reversed codewords due to retransmission are delivered to the user in order by means of detecting two errors. The hybrid ARQ scheme significantly outperforms the FEC or the ideal selective-repeat ARQ system in the respect of throughput and reliability, especially when the channel error rate is approximately in the range from $10^{-2}$~$10^{-3}$.

Recently, WSN(wireless sensor networks) consists of several sensor nodes in sensor field. And each sensors have the enforced energy constraint. Therefore, it is important to manage energy efficiently. In WSN application system, FEC(Forward error correction) increases the energy efficiency and data reliability of the data transmission. LDPC(Low density parity check) code is one of the FEC code. It needs more encoding operation than other FEC code by growing codeword length. But this code can approach the Shannon capacity limit and it is also can be used to increase the data reliability and decrease the transmission energy. In this paper, the author adopt Linear-Congruence method at generating parity check matrix of LDPC(Low density parity check) codes to reduce the complexity of encoding process and to enhance the energy efficiency in the WSN. As a result, the proposed algorithm can increase the encoding energy efficiency and the data reliability.

Recent advances in forward error correction (FEC) coding techniques were focused on addressing the challenges of multicast and broadcast delivery. However, FEC approaches can also be used for unicast content delivery in order to solve transmission control protocol issues found in wireless networks. In this paper, we exploit the error resilient properties of Raptor codes by proposing Raptor-based content delivery protocol (RCDP) - a novel solution for reliable and bidirectional unicast communication in lossy links that can improve content delivery in situations where the wireless network is the bottleneck. RCDP has been designed, validated, optimized, and its performance has been analyzed in terms of throughput and resource efficiency. Experimental results show that RCDP is a highly efficient solution for environments characterized by high delays and packet losses making it very suitable for intelligent transport system oriented applications since it achieves significant performance improvements when compared to traditional transport layer protocols.

The existing screen mirroring systems are vulnerable to packet loss and inefficient for mobile devices with limited energy capacity. To overcome these problems, we propose a packet loss robust and energy efficient screen mirroring system for mobile device. The proposed system employs systematic Raptor codes for a forward error correction method to mitigate the video quality degradation that is caused by packet loss over wireless networks. For the mobile device energy saving, the proposed system shapes the screen mirroring traffic and adjusts the Raptor encoding parameters. In this paper, the proposed system is fully implemented on single board computers and is examined in a real Wi-Fi Direct network.

Wireless sensor networks(WSN) technology has various applications such as surveillance and information gathering in the uncontrollable area of human. One of major issues in WSN is the research for reducing the energy consumption and reliability of data. A system with forward error correction(FEC) can provide an objective reliability while using less transmission power than a system without FEC. In this paper, we propose to use LDPC codes of various code rate(0.53, 0.81, 0.91) for FEC for WSN. Also, we considered node-to-node interference in addition to AWGN channel. The proposed system has not only high reliable data transmission at low SNR, but also reduced transmission power usage.

Modem digital communication systems are required to use forward error correction (FEC) codes to combat inevitable channel impairment. Turbo codes or low density parity check (LDPC) codes, using iterative decoding with soft decision detection (SDD) information, are the most common examples. The excellent performance of these codes should be conditioned on accurate estimation of soft decision detection information. In order to use FEC codes with iterative decoding for Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) system, reliable soft decision channel gain should be provided. In this paper, we investigate efficient SDD methods for turbo-coded MIMO system, and derive the corresponding formulas of SDD for various MIMO detection schemes. We present simulation results of the derived SDD schemes for turbo-coded MIMO systems, and show that the presented results almost approximate to maximum likelihood detection performance with much less computational load.

In this paper, we present an efficient architecture of a versatile Reed-Solomon (RS) decoder which can be programmed to decode RS codes continuously with my message length k as well as any block length n. This unique feature eliminates the need of inserting zeros for decoding shortened RS codes. Also, the values of the parameters n and k, hence the error-correcting capability t can be altered at every codeword block. The decoder permits 3-step pipelined processing based on the modified Euclid's algorithm (MEA). Since each step can be driven by a separate clock, the decoder can operate just as 2-step pipeline processing by employing the faster clock in step 2 and/or step 3. Also, the decoder can be used even in the case that the input clock is different from the output clock. Each step is designed to have a structure suitable for decoding RS codes with varying block length. A new architecture for the MEA is designed for variable values of the t. The operating length of the shift registers in the MEA block is shortened by one, and it can be varied according to the different values of the t. To maintain the throughput rate with less circuitry, the MEA block uses both the recursive technique and the over-clocking technique. The decoder can decodes codeword received not only in a burst mode, but also in a continuous mode. It can be used in a wide range of applications because of its versatility. The adaptive RS decoder over GF($2^8$) having the error-correcting capability of upto 10 has been designed in VHDL, and successfully synthesized in an FPGA chip.

본 논문에서는 차세대 무선 통신 시스템에 적용이 가능한 새로운 FEC(Forward Error Correction) 부호화 방법으로 MLC(Multi-Level Convolutional) 부호화 방식을 제안한다. 차세대 무선통신서비스는 음성, 데이터, 영상 등 많은 종류의 서비스를 함으로써 데이터의 처리속도가 빠른 시스템이 요구된다. 데이터 처리시간을 단축시키기 위한 방법으로 다중 레벨을 이용하여 부호어를 만들어 내는 방식의 부호화 시스템을 설계하였다. MLC는 부호 처리시간을 단축시킬 뿐만 아니라 다양한 알고리즘을 이용해 부호어를 만들어 낼 수 있다는 특징을 가지게 된다. 모의실험은 MLC 코드의 두 가지 방법, Modulo- operation 방식과 Galois Field-Operation 방식을 이용하여 수행하였다. 또한 모의실험을 통하여 (s=2, T=2)인 경우가 MLC 부호기의 최적 연결다항식임을 알았다.

Carrier interferometry code is considered as a promising scheme that provides significant performance improvement via frequency diversity effect. Space-time coding is commonly employed to achieve a performance gain through space diversity. The combination of these techniques and forward error correction coding will lead to enhanced system capacity and performance. This paper presents a low-density parity check (LDPC) coded space-time orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission scheme with carrier interferometry code for high-capacity and high-performance mobile multimedia communications. Computer simulations demonstrate that the proposed mobile multimedia transmission system offers a considerable performance improvement of approximately 9dB in terms of Eb/No in the Rayleigh fading channel with relatively low delay spread, in comparison with space-time OFDM. Performance gains are further increased, comparing with traditional OFDM systems.
