The goal of this course is to introduce the advanced-level and recent topics in channel coding and decoding to the students and teach how to design and analyse a digital communication system with Turbo, LDPC and Polar Coding.
Channel capacity, classical coding and decoding techniques. Multilevel coding, multistage decoding. Soft decision decoding algorithms: MAP, LogMAP, Max-LogMAP, SOVA. Parallel concatenated (turbo) codes. Iterative decoding. Interleaving. Serial concatenated coding. Code design and error performance analysis. EXIT diagrams. Low density parity check (LDPC) coding. Message passing algorithms. Applications of turbo and LDPC coding. Coding and decoding for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) channels.
