Rate compatible shortened turbo product codes
Résumé
In this paper, we propose a set of design criteria of constructing shortened turbo product codes. Based on the criteria, we design two families of rate-compatible turbo product codes. The performance of rate-compatible turbo product codes is evaluated on the Gaussian channels using Monte Carlo simulations. We also propose a modified Gallager bounding technique to the rate-compatible turbo product codes. We show that the performance bound has a good match with the simulation results
