With the advent of QR readers and mobile phones the use of graphical codes like QR codes and data matrix code has become very popular. Despite the noise like appearance, it has the advantage of high data capacity, damage resistance and fast decoding robustness. The proposed system embeds the image chosen by the user to develop visually appealing QR codes with improved decoding robustness using BCH...
We present a field programmable gate array (FPGA) based implementation of the H.264 video decoder algorithm. The novelty of our design is that the communication between the decoder modules is done using a network-on-chip (NoC). This makes our design scalable and easily integrated within larger future NoC based systems, where the same hardware platform can host other algorithms such as compression,...
The High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard, as the newest generation video coding standard issued in 2013, significantly improves compression performance relative to existing standards in about 50% bit-rate reduction for equal perceptual video quality with the cost of greatly increasing the computation complexity of the encoder/decoder. In order to improve the decoding efficiency, we design...
Gradient descent bit-flipping (GDBF) algorithm achieves good error performance for decoding low density parity check codes. In the GDBF algorithm, a search point is apt to be trapped in a local optimum, which causes performance degradation of the GDBF algorithm. To overcome this issue, the noisy GDBF algorithm introduces random perturbation into the inversion function of each symbol, which decreases...
Many researchers have analyzed the error correction capability of LDPC codes for iterative decoding algorithms. However, it is difficult to show the error correction capability of LDPC codes for iterative decoding algorithms based on belief propagation theoretically. Chilappagari et al. reported the error correction capability of column-weight-three regular LDPC codes under the Gallager A algorithm...
We investigate a synchronization method for channels that are impaired by insertion, deletion, and substitution (IDS) errors and include outer low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes with error-correction capabilities and inner marker codes for synchronization. We improve synchronization using fixed-symbols, and evaluate the achievable rate by a specific fixed-symbol assignment. We demonstrate via...
This paper proposes a low-complexity high performance soft-in hard-out decoding algorithm for Reed-Solomon (RS) codes. The Guruswami-Sudan (GS) algebraic list decoding algorithm can correct errors beyond half the distance bound by performing a curve-fitting decoding process. However, its extra error-correction capability is exchanged with a high computational cost which is dominated by the interpolation...
Spatially coupled low-density parity-check (SC-LDPC) codes are sparse graph codes that have recently become of interest due to their capacity-approaching performance on memoryless binary input channels. Moreover, protograph SC-LDPC codes have been shown to be asymptotically good under certain conditions. SC-LDPC codes are amenable to a windowed decoder that allows decoding of blocks of bits to be...
Sphere decoding(SD)is an efficient algorithm which has been proposed in Multiple input Multiple output (MIMO) digital communication. Sphere decoding algorithm is based on the rule of maximum likelihood decoding algorithm, But SD algorithm does not like ML algorithm to retrieve all of the lattice. However, SD in some environment complexity is very high. The complexity of the SD is controlled by radius...
Smart home environment is typically comprised of two parts: a home gateway and a number of home appliances. One of the challenges faced by ZigBee is its resource-efficient firmware update. A commonly used method is to compress the firmware before sending it to the ZigBee end nodes. The receiver side, i.e., the ZigBee end nodes, have limited resources in terms of storage and communication bandwidth...
In massive MIMO systems, multiple high-speed high-resolution ADCs will be a major obstacle for real applications because of the hardware complexity and power consumption. One solution to this problem is to adopt low-cost low-resolution ADCs instead. Note that highly quantized signals will destroy the orthogonality of OFDM design, the key point remains to find computational decoding methods while maintaining...
This paper proposes an area efficient and low power Reed-Solomon (RS) decoder. The proposed decoder is designed using eight stage arithmetic pipelined architecture. The pipelined architecture of RS decoder performs the detection of error locator from the input stream and computes the error magnitude polynomial using the Berleykamp Massey's algorithm. The evaluation of error locator and computation...
Video communication through wireless channel has always been a challenging issue. Transmitting the compressed video through erroneous channel may lead to packet loss, eventually degrading the image quality. Thus an error detection and concealment scheme is applied at the decoder. This paper presents the error detection and concealment technique. The research work includes the spatio-temporal error...
With the popularity of Internet of Things technology in consumer electronic product, the security of data in these devices is becoming increasingly important. However, common encryption schemes are not well suited for these resource-constrained devices. To solve this problem, a low-cost SM4 implementation structure based on resource reutilization is proposed in this paper. The round function and key...
The bi-objective just-in-time single-machine job-shop scheduling problem (JIT-JSP) aims at simultaneously minimizing earliness and tardiness. In this paper, a multi-objective decoder-based evolutionary algorithm is proposed. The decoding strategy divides the search into two steps. In the first step, the search of the permutation order of the jobs is realized thanks to a multi-objective evolutionary...
Clustering streaming data has gained importance in recent years due to an expanding opportunity to discover knowledge in widely available data streams. As streams are potentially evolving and unbounded sequence of data objects, clustering algorithms capable of performing fast and incremental processing of data points are necessary. This paper presents a method of clustering high-dimensional data streams...
We propose a new low-density parity-check (LDPC) coded binary physical-layer network coding (PNC) scheme for Gaussian two-way relay channels. In this scheme, we introduce a bit mapper between the LDPC encoder and the modulator, which considers the unequal error protections brought by the high order PSK modulations. We add a new bipartite sub-channel graph consisting of sub-channels and variable nodes...
This paper proposes a Modified Multiple Triangular Inequality Elimination (MMTIE) to further reduce the search number of candidate codevectors. The MMTIE adopts the same original search space as the MTIE scheme with the initial best-matched codevector selected by the Initial Index Code Assignment (IICA), and integrates the intersection rule of the Candidate Codevectors Group (CCG) scheme to further...
In this paper we investigate the impact of puncturing on a given information set. This study is necessary to design a good rate-compatible puncturing pattern for hybrid automatic repeat request based on incremental redundancy (HARQ-IR) since an information set should be unchanged during retransmission. We first identify that for an information set, there exist the so-called catastrophic puncturing...
In this paper, we consider a multiuser multiple-input single-output downlink system for Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer(SWIPT). Different from the conventional battery-free power splitting strategy, the harvested energy can be buffered in a battery before consumption. Accordingly, increasing battery lifetime, where the base station is powered by sustainable energy. A sum rate...
