Abstract— In this paper, we propose partly parallel architectures based on optimal overlapped sum-product (OSP) decoding. To ensure high throughput and hardware utilization effi...
A coded modulation system is considered in which nonbinary coded symbols are mapped directly to nonbinary modulation signals. It is proved that if the modulator-channel combination...
The maximum-likelihood decoding problem is known to be NP-hard for general linear and Reed-Solomon codes [1, 4]. In this paper, we introduce the notion of A-covered codes, that is...
In this paper we present a family of ternary quasi-perfect BCH codes. These codes are of minimum distance 5 and covering radius 3. The first member of this family is the ternary qu...
