Low error floor LT coding algorithm for unequal error protection by Xin SONG, Shuyan NI, Zhe ZHANG, Yurong LIAO, Tuofeng LEI

“…Conclusions: In this paper, a systematic unequal error protection LT coding scheme is designed, and a check degree distribution design model suitable for this scheme is constructed to solve the problem of high error floor existing in the conventional UEP-LT algorithm in the AWGN channel.The main idea of this scheme is to design fixed coding segments,rateless coding segments and systematic node segments and transmit them in sequence.The advantage of this scheme is that it can provide non-zero LLR information as early as possible for information nodes, and make the MIB and the LIB obtain different and flexibly adjustable average degrees.In addition,based on the extrinsic information transfer(EXIT)chart,the check degree distribution is designed for the fixed segment and the rateless segment,so that the MIB can obtain the optimal protection performance,and the convergence performance of the LIB can be improved as much as possible. …”
