摘要: 空间耦合(spatially coupled)LDPC码为通信系统提供了一种全新的接近容量限的方式,但在耦合过程中需要额外添加校验节点,因此存在一定的码率损失.为了消除码率损失,提出了一种新型的耦合方式,首位置变量节点的边展开方式不变,中间位置的边连接到前一个位置的校验节点并依次向后展开,末位置的边与首位置的边成对称分布,从而得到了一种无需添加额外校验节点,码率无损失的SC-LDPC码变体结构.在AWGN信道中通过外部信息转移(extrinsic information transfer)理论分析及误比特率性能仿真,结果表明:相对于SC-LDPC码的传统结构,本文提出的SC-LDPC码变体结构在链长较短时不仅能避免码率损失,并且具有更优的阈值和译码性能,在未来通信系统中更具优势.

Abstract: Spatial coupled LDPC (SC-LDPC) code provides an entirely new way of approaching capacity for communication systems, however, a rate loss caused by additional check nodes during the coupling process. In order to eliminate rate loss, a coupling method was proposed. The edges expansion of the variable node in the first position were unchanged, and the edges of the middle position were connected backwards from the previous position check node, then the edges of the last position were symmetrically distributed with the edges in the first position. Therefore, a rate-loss-free SC-LDPC code was designed without added addition check nodes. Extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) theoretical analysis and bit error rate performance simulation were adopted in the AWGN channel. It is showed the SC-LDPC variant structure is superior to the traditional structure with a shorter coupling chain length, not only can the rate loss be avoided, but also better threshold and decoding performance, it has more advantages in future communication systems.

Key words: spatial coupled LDPC code, eliminate rate loss, AWGN channel, extrinsic information transfer, BP decoding
