Improving turbo-like codes using iterative decoder analysis

The density evolution method is used to analyze the performance and optimize the structure of parallel and serial turbo codes, and generalized serial concatenations of mixtures of different outer and inner codes. Design examples are given for mixture codes.

Trellis Decoding Complexity of Linear Block Codes

We consider the problem of finding a trellis for a linear block code that minimizes one or more measures of trellis complexity. The domain of optimization may be different permutations of the same code, or different codes with the same parameters. Constraints on trellises, including relationships between the minimal trellis of a code and that of the dual code, are used to derive bounds on complexity. We define a partial ordering on trellises: if a trellis is optimum with respect to this partial ordering, it has the desirable property that it simultaneously minimizes all of the complexity measures examined. We examine properties of such optimal trellises and give examples of optimal permutations of codes, most notably the (48,24,12) quadratic residue code.

Decoder Synchronization for Deep Space Missions

The Consultative committee for Space Data STandards (CCSDS) recommends that space communication links employ a concatenated error-correcting channel-coding system in which the inner code is a convolutional (7, 2/2) code and the outer code is a (255,223) Reed-Solomon code.

Decoding Li + /Na + Exchange Route Toward High-Performance Mn-Based Layered Cathodes for Li-Ion Batteries

Li + /Na + exchange has been extensively explored as an effective method to prepare high-performance Mn-based layered cathodes for Li-ion batteries, since the first report in 1996 by P. G. Bruce (Nature, 1996. 381, 499–500). Understanding the detailed structural changes during the ion-exchange process is crucial to implement the synthetic control of high-performance layered Mn-based cathodes, but less studied. Herein, in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction, density functional theory calculations, and electrochemical tests are combined to conduct the systemic studies into the structural changes during the ion-exchange process of an Mn-only layered cathode O3-type Li 0.67 [Li 0.22 Mn 0.78 ]O 2 (LLMO) from the corresponding counterpart P3-type Na 0.67 [Li 0.22 Mn 0.78 ]O 2 (NLMO). The temperature-resolved observations combined with theoretical calculations reveal that the Li + /Na + exchange is favorable thermodynamically and composited with two tandem topotactic phase transitions: 1) from NLMO to a layered intermediate through ≈60% of Li + /Na + exchange. 2) then to the final layered product LLMO through further Li insertion. Moreover, the intermediate-dominate composite is obtained by slowing down the exchange kinetics below room temperature, showing better electrochemical performance than LLMO obtained by the traditional molten-salt method. Finally, the findings provide guides for the synthetic control of high-performance Mn-based cathodes under mild conditions.
