Energy Performance of LDPC Scheme in Multi-Hop Wireless Sensor Network with Two base Stations Model

Conservation of the energy is one of the main design issues in wireless sensor networks. The limited battery power of each sensor node is a challenging task in deploying this type of network. The challenge is crucial in reliable wireless network when implementing efficient error correcting scheme with energy consuming routing protocol. In this work, we investigated the energy performance of LDPC code in multi-hop wireless sensor network. We proposed a model of two base stations to prolong the lifetime and build a reliable and energy-efficient network. Through performed MATLAB simulations, we examine the energy effectiveness of multiple base stations model on reliable wireless sensor network performance in different network dimensions

Optimization and Applications of Modern Wireless Networks and Symmetry

Due to the future demands of wireless communications, this book focuses on channel coding, multi-access, network protocol, and the related techniques for IoT/5G. Channel coding is widely used to enhance reliability and spectral efficiency. In particular, low-density parity check (LDPC) codes and polar codes are optimized for next wireless standard. Moreover, advanced network protocol is developed to improve wireless throughput. This invokes a great deal of attention on modern communications

Distributed Source Coding Techniques for Lossless Compression of Hyperspectral Images

This paper deals with the application of distributed source coding (DSC) theory to remote sensing image compression. Although DSC exhibits a significant potential in many application fields, up till now the results obtained on real signals fall short of the theoretical bounds, and often impose additional system-level constraints. The objective of this paper is to assess the potential of DSC for lossless image compression carried out onboard a remote platform. We first provide a brief overview of DSC of correlated information sources. We then focus on onboard lossless image compression, and apply DSC techniques in order to reduce the complexity of the onboard encoder, at the expense of the decoder's, by exploiting the correlation of different bands of a hyperspectral dataset. Specifically, we propose two different compression schemes, one based on powerful binary error-correcting codes employed as source codes, and one based on simpler multilevel coset codes. The performance of both schemes is evaluated on a few AVIRIS scenes, and is compared with other state-of-the-art 2D and 3D coders. Both schemes turn out to achieve competitive compression performance, and one of them also has reduced complexity. Based on these results, we highlight the main issues that are still to be solved to further improve the performance of DSC-based remote sensing systems

Layered Wyner-Ziv video coding for noisy channels

The growing popularity of video sensor networks and video celluar phones has generated the need for low-complexity and power-efficient multimedia systems that can handle multiple video input and output streams. While standard video coding techniques fail to satisfy these requirements, distributed source coding is a promising technique for ??uplink?? applications. Wyner-Ziv coding refers to lossy source coding with side information at the decoder. Based on recent theoretical result on successive Wyner-Ziv coding, we propose in this thesis a practical layered Wyner-Ziv video codec using the DCT, nested scalar quantizer, and irregular LDPC code based Slepian-Wolf coding (or lossless source coding with side information) for noiseless channel. The DCT is applied as an approximation to the conditional KLT, which makes the components of the transformed block conditionally independent given the side information. NSQ is a binning scheme that facilitates layered bit-plane coding of the bin indices while reducing the bit rate. LDPC code based Slepian-Wolf coding exploits the correlation between the quantized version of the source and the side information to achieve further compression. Different from previous works, an attractive feature of our proposed system is that video encoding is done only once but decoding allowed at many lower bit rates without quality loss. For Wyner-Ziv coding over discrete noisy channels, we present a Wyner-Ziv video codec using IRA codes for Slepian-Wolf coding based on the idea of two equivalent channels. For video streaming applications where the channel is packet based, we apply unequal error protection scheme to the embedded Wyner-Ziv coded video stream to find the optimal source-channel coding trade-off for a target transmission rate over packet erasure channel

Spherical and Hyperbolic Toric Topology-Based Codes On Graph Embedding for Ising MRF Models: Classical and Quantum Topology Machine Learning

The paper introduces the application of information geometry to describe the ground states of Ising models by utilizing parity-check matrices of cyclic and quasi-cyclic codes on toric and spherical topologies. The approach establishes a connection between machine learning and error-correcting coding. This proposed approach has implications for the development of new embedding methods based on trapping sets. Statistical physics and number geometry applied for optimize error-correcting codes, leading to these embedding and sparse factorization methods. The paper establishes a direct connection between DNN architecture and error-correcting coding by demonstrating how state-of-the-art architectures (ChordMixer, Mega, Mega-chunk, CDIL, ...) from the long-range arena can be equivalent to of block and convolutional LDPC codes (Cage-graph, Repeat Accumulate). QC codes correspond to certain types of chemical elements, with the carbon element being represented by the mixed automorphism Shu-Lin-Fossorier QC-LDPC code. The connections between Belief Propagation and the Permanent, Bethe-Permanent, Nishimori Temperature, and Bethe-Hessian Matrix are elaborated upon in detail. The Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) used in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick Ising model can be seen as analogous to the back-propagation loss function landscape in training DNNs. This similarity creates a comparable problem with TS pseudo-codeword, resembling the belief propagation method. Additionally, the layer depth in QAOA correlates to the number of decoding belief propagation iterations in the Wiberg decoding tree. Overall, this work has the potential to advance multiple fields, from Information Theory, DNN architecture design (sparse and structured prior graph topology), efficient hardware design for Quantum and Classical DPU/TPU (graph, quantize and shift register architect.) to Materials Science and beyond.Comment: 71 pages, 42 Figures, 1 Table, 1 Appendix. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2109.08184 by other author

Near-capacity fixed-rate and rateless channel code constructions

Fixed-rate and rateless channel code constructions are designed for satisfying conflicting design tradeoffs, leading to codes that benefit from practical implementations, whilst offering a good bit error ratio (BER) and block error ratio (BLER) performance. More explicitly, two novel low-density parity-check code (LDPC) constructions are proposed; the first construction constitutes a family of quasi-cyclic protograph LDPC codes, which has a Vandermonde-like parity-check matrix (PCM). The second construction constitutes a specific class of protograph LDPC codes, which are termed as multilevel structured (MLS) LDPC codes. These codes possess a PCM construction that allows the coexistence of both pseudo-randomness as well as a structure requiring a reduced memory. More importantly, it is also demonstrated that these benefits accrue without any compromise in the attainable BER/BLER performance. We also present the novel concept of separating multiple users by means of user-specific channel codes, which is referred to as channel code division multiple access (CCDMA), and provide an example based on MLS LDPC codes. In particular, we circumvent the difficulty of having potentially high memory requirements, while ensuring that each user’s bits in the CCDMA system are equally protected. With regards to rateless channel coding, we propose a novel family of codes, which we refer to as reconfigurable rateless codes, that are capable of not only varying their code-rate but also to adaptively modify their encoding/decoding strategy according to the near-instantaneous channel conditions. We demonstrate that the proposed reconfigurable rateless codes are capable of shaping their own degree distribution according to the nearinstantaneous requirements imposed by the channel, but without any explicit channel knowledge at the transmitter. Additionally, a generalised transmit preprocessing aided closed-loop downlink multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system is presented, in which both the channel coding components as well as the linear transmit precoder exploit the knowledge of the channel state information (CSI). More explicitly, we embed a rateless code in a MIMO transmit preprocessing scheme, in order to attain near-capacity performance across a wide range of channel signal-to-ratios (SNRs), rather than only at a specific SNR. The performance of our scheme is further enhanced with the aid of a technique, referred to as pilot symbol assisted rateless (PSAR) coding, whereby a predetermined fraction of pilot bits is appropriately interspersed with the original information bits at the channel coding stage, instead of multiplexing pilots at the modulation stage, as in classic pilot symbol assisted modulation (PSAM). We subsequently demonstrate that the PSAR code-aided transmit preprocessing scheme succeeds in gleaning more information from the inserted pilots than the classic PSAM technique, because the pilot bits are not only useful for sounding the channel at the receiver but also beneficial for significantly reducing the computational complexity of the rateless channel decoder

저밀도 부호의 응용: 묶음 지그재그 파운틴 부호와 WOM 부호

학위논문 (박사)-- 서울대학교 대학원 : 전기·컴퓨터공학부, 2017. 2. 노종선.This dissertation contains the following two contributions on the applications of sparse codes. Fountain codes Batched zigzag (BZ) fountain codes – Two-phase batched zigzag (TBZ) fountain codes Write-once memory (WOM) codes – WOM codes implemented by rate-compatible low-density generator matrix (RC-LDGM) codes First, two classes of fountain codes, called batched zigzag fountain codes and two-phase batched zigzag fountain codes, are proposed for the symbol erasure channel. At a cost of slightly lengthened code symbols, the involved message symbols in each batch of the proposed codes can be recovered by low complexity zigzag decoding algorithm. Thus, the proposed codes have low buffer occupancy during decoding process. These features are suitable for receivers with limited hardware resources in the broadcasting channel. A method to obtain degree distributions of code symbols for the proposed codes via ripple size evolution is also proposed by taking into account the released code symbols from the batches. It is shown that the proposed codes outperform Luby transform codes and zigzag decodable fountain codes with respect to intermediate recovery rate and coding overhead when message length is short, symbol erasure rate is low, and available buffer size is limited. In the second part of this dissertation, WOM codes constructed by sparse codes are presented. Recently, WOM codes are adopted to NAND flash-based solid-state drive (SSD) in order to extend the lifetime by reducing the number of erasure operations. Here, a new rewriting scheme for the SSD is proposed, which is implemented by multiple binary erasure quantization (BEQ) codes. The corresponding BEQ codes are constructed by RC-LDGM codes. Moreover, by putting RC-LDGM codes together with a page selection method, writing efficiency can be improved. It is verified via simulation that the SSD with proposed rewriting scheme outperforms the SSD without and with the conventional WOM codes for single level cell (SLC) and multi-level cell (MLC) flash memories.1 Introduction 1 1.1 Background 1 1.2 Overview of Dissertation 5 2 Sparse Codes 7 2.1 Linear Block Codes 7 2.2 LDPC Codes 9 2.3 Message Passing Decoder 11 3 New Fountain Codes with Improved Intermediate Recovery Based on Batched Zigzag Coding 13 3.1 Preliminaries 17 3.1.1 Definitions and Notation 17 3.1.2 LT Codes 18 3.1.3 Zigzag Decodable Codes 20 3.1.4 Bit-Level Overhead 22 3.2 New Fountain Codes Based on Batched Zigzag Coding 23 3.2.1 Construction of Shift Matrix 24 3.2.2 Encoding and Decoding of the Proposed BZ Fountain Codes 25 3.2.3 Storage and Computational Complexity 28 3.3 Degree Distribution of BZ Fountain Codes 31 3.3.1 Relation Between $\Psi(x)$ and $\Omega(x)$ 31 3.3.2 Derivation of $\Omega(x)$ via Ripple Size Evolution 32 3.4 Two-Phase Batched Zigzag Fountain Codes with Additional Memory 40 3.4.1 Code Construction 41 3.4.2 Bit-Level Overhead 46 3.5 Numerical Analysis 49 4 Write-Once Memory Codes Using Rate-Compatible LDGM Codes 60 4.1 Preliminaries 62 4.1.1 NAND Flash Memory 62 4.1.2 Rewriting Schemes for Flash Memory 62 4.1.3 Construction of Rewriting Codes by BEQ Codes 65 4.2 Proposed Rewriting Codes 67 4.2.1 System Model 67 4.2.2 Multi-rate Rewriting Codes 68 4.2.3 Page Selection for Rewriting 70 4.3 RC-LDGM Codes 74 4.4 Numerical Analysis 76 5 Conclusions 80 Bibliography 82 초록 94Docto
