A Generalized Adjusted Min-Sum Decoder for 5G LDPC Codes: Algorithm and Implementation

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming, Yifei Shen, Yuqing Ren, Hassan Harb

5G New Radio (NR) has stringent demands on both performance and complexity for the design of low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoding algorithms and corresponding VLSI implementations. Furthermore, decoders must fully support the wide range of all 5G NR bl ...

Design of Cryo-CMOS Analog Circuits using the Gm/ID Approach

Christian Enz, Hung-Chi Han

The Gm/ID approach has proven to be an efficient technique for the design of low-power analog circuits even in advanced technology nodes. It has already been shown that the normalized Gm/ID is actually a universal figure-of-merit (FoM) that is independent ...

Low Power LDPC Decoding by Reliable Voltage Down-Scaling

Andreas Peter Burg

Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) decoder is among the power hungry building blocks of wireless communication systems. Voltage scaling down to Near-Threshold (NT) voltages substantially improves energy efficiency, in theory up 10x. However, tuning the voltag ...

On the (Im)possibility of Commitment over Gaussian Unfair Noisy Channels

Anuj Kumar Yadav

Commitment is a key primitive which resides at the heart of several cryptographic protocols. Noisy channels can help realize information-theoretically secure commitment schemes; however, their imprecise statistical characterization can severely impair such ...

Analysis of the influence of errors in DNA-based image coding

Touradj Ebrahimi, Michela Testolina, Davi Nachtigall Lazzarotto

In the last decade, DNA has been increasingly investigated as an alternative medium for cold data storage, presenting several advantages over standard hard drives such as a higher density, longer lifespan and lower energy consumption. However, such coding ...

Relaxed Locally Correctable Codes With Nearly-Linear Block Length And Constant Query Complexity

Alessandro Chiesa

Locally correctable codes (LCCs) are error correcting codes C : \Sigmak \rightarrow \Sigman which admit local algorithms that correct any individual symbol of a corrupted codeword via a minuscule number of queries. For systematic codes, this notion is stro ...

A Functional Perspective on Information Measures

Amedeo Roberto Esposito

Since the birth of Information Theory, researchers have defined and exploited various information measures, as well as endowed them with operational meanings. Some were born as a "solution to a problem", like Shannon's Entropy and Mutual Information. Other ...

Landscapes of DNA Mechanics and Genomes

Thomas Antonin Zwahlen

The local physical properties - such as shape and flexibility - of the DNA double-helix is today widely believed to be influenced by nucleic acid sequence in a non-trivial way. Furthermore, there is strong evidence that these properties play a role in many ...

A double-ended helicon source to symmetrize RAID plasma

Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Riccardo Agnello, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Philippe Frédérique Bruno Guittienne, Rémy Jacquier, Christine Stollberg, Renat Karimov, Simon Pierre Henri Vincent

Neutral Beam Injectors (NBI) for post-DEMO-like reactors must achieve a neutralization efficiency (fraction neutrals/ions) above 70%. To reach this, NBIs based on negative ions are necessary and an innovative concept of this type of injector is based on ph ...

Secret Key Generation Using Short Blocklength Polar Coding Over Wireless Channels

Yanina Yurina Shkel

This paper investigates the problem of secret key generation from correlated Gaussian random variables in the short blocklength regime. Short blocklengths are commonly employed in massively connected IoT sensor networks in 5G and beyond wireless systems. P ...

Floyd's manifold is a conjugation space

Jérôme Scherer

E. E. Floyd showed in 1973 that there exist only two nontrivial cobor-dism classes that contain manifolds with three cells, and that they lie in dimen-sions 10 and 5. We prove that there is an action of the cyclic group C2 on the 10-dimensional Floyd manif ...

A Revisitation of Low-Rate Bounds on the Reliability Function of Discrete Memoryless Channels for List Decoding

Marco Bondaschi

We revise the proof of low-rate upper bounds on the reliability function of discrete memoryless channels for ordinary and list-decoding schemes, in particular Berlekamp and Blinovsky's zero-rate bound, as well as Blahut's bound for low rates. The available ...

Bootstrapping traceless symmetric O(N) scalars

Alessandro Vichi, Maria Refinetti, Marten Jan Reehorst

We use numerical bootstrap techniques to study correlation functions of traceless sym-metric tensors of O(N) with two indices ti j. We obtain upper bounds on operator dimen-sions for all the relevant representations and several values of N. We discover sev ...

The Case for Performance Interfaces for Hardware Accelerators

Jiacheng Ma, George Candea, Aikaterini Argyraki, Rishabh Ramesh Iyer

While systems designers are increasingly turning to hardware accelerators for performance gains, realizing these gains is painstaking and error-prone. It can take several person-months to determine if a given accelerator is a good fit for a given piece of ...

Dynamic SCL Decoder With Path-Flipping for 5G Polar Codes

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming, Yifei Shen

Since polar were ratified as part of the 5G standard, low-complexity polar decoders with close-to-optimum error-rate performance have received significant attention. Compared to successive cancellation (SC) decoding, both SC list and SC flip decoding can i ...
