| Research Abstract |
LT codes are rate less codes whose code length and dimension can be arbitrarily chosen. It has been shown that they provide considerably better performance by using a message-passing decoding. However, they are not able to achieve good error performance for a noisy channel. Then we propose a concatenated code using outer LT and inner conventional error correcting codes, and its decoding algorithm in which an iterative bounded-distance decoding and soft-decision LT decoding are performed to the inner and outer codes, respectively. The simulation results have shown that the proposed scheme is more effective than a conventional concatenated coding scheme.
