ABSTRACT:
Methods and systems of low density parity check coded (LDPCC) coding are disclosed herein in which a set of LDPC codes ensure reliable transmission for channels in which modulation symbols may undergo attenuation in a random fashion. Methods and systems of LDPC coding disclosed herein include choosing a code blocklength and concatenating codewords into which a data packet can be encoded. To optimize the coding scheme, first, codeword shortening is performed to ensure an integer number of codewords for a desired packet length. The codewords may then be punctured or repeated to ensure an integer number of channel symbols per codeword. Shortening and puncturing repetition methods are implemented to yield minimum overhead while keeping the effective coding rate low.
