High-rate space-time block codes (STBC with code rate > 1) in multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems are able to provide both spatial multiplexing gain and diversity gain, but have high maximum likelihood (ML) decoding complexity. Since…
Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes are optimal where the minimum distance cannot be improved for a given length and code size. Twisted Reed-Solomon codes over finite fields were introduced in 2017, which are generalization of…

We propose a new family of spatially coupled product codes, called sub-block rearranged staircase (SR-staircase) codes. Each code block of SR-staircase codes is obtained by encoding rearranged preceding code blocks and new information…

The paper considers coding schemes derived from Reed-Muller (RM) codes, for transmission over input-constrained memoryless channels. Our focus is on the $(d,\infty)$-runlength limited (RLL) constraint, which mandates that any pair of…
The notion of universally decodable matrices (UDMs) was recently introduced by Tavildar and Viswanath while studying slow fading channels. It turns out that the problem of constructing UDMs is tightly connected to the problem of…
Petabyte-scale distributed storage systems are currently transitioning to erasure codes to achieve higher storage efficiency. Classical codes like Reed-Solomon are highly sub-optimal for distributed environments due to their high overhead…

An interpolation-based decoding scheme for interleaved subspace codes is presented. The scheme can be used as a (not necessarily polynomial-time) list decoder as well as a probabilistic unique decoder. Both interpretations allow to decode…
