Useful only as an additional reference book This book was required reading for my graduate level advanced coding topics course. My first issue with the text is its clunky notation. Expressions and equations are written in unusual fonts. Super and sub scripts appear awkward, and the authors seem to introduce their own notation for convolution. Besides the cumbe. A very good book on iterative decoding Arun This book is your "one stop shop" to learn all about low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes and iterative decoding. This seems to be the primary intention of the authors since they don't talk about anything that isn't related to LDPC codes or iterative decoding. This book is not meant as an introductory course in codi. An Outstanding Work by Two Experts on the Topic Dr. Richardson and Urbanke have made some important controbutions on the theorical analysis of message-passing decoding on LDPC code in special, code on graph in general. I read this book with the hope to pick up some analysis skills on iterative decoding. In general, I understand that experts in an area does not nec
I believe this book will become required reading for researchers in LDPC codes at universities and communications companies around the world.' Thomas Fuja, University of Notre Dame . They have made substantive contributions to the theory and practice of LDPC codes. 'There is definitely a market for a book focusing on LDPC codes, and Tom Richardson and Reudiger Urbanke would be on anyone's short list to write that book
A chapter on factor graphs helps to unify the important topics of information theory, coding and communication theory. With emphasis on the underlying theory, techniques to analyse and design practical iterative coding systems are presented. The simplicity of the binary erasure channel is exploited to develop analytical techniques and intuition, which are then applied to general channel models. Having trouble deciding which coding scheme to employ, how to design a new scheme, or how to improve an existing system? This summary of the state-of-the-art in iterative coding makes this decision more straightforward. Using Gallager's original ensemble of LDPC codes, the basic concepts are extended for several general codes, including the practically important
