The Design of Rate-Compatible Structured Low-Density Parity-Check Codes

The main objective of our research is to design practical low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes which provide a wide range of code rates in a rate-compatible fashion. To this end, we first propose a rate-compatible puncturing algorithm for LDPC codes at short block lengths (up to several thousand s...
