In this paper, we presented three approaches to improve the design of Kite codes (newly proposed rateless codes), resulting in an ensemble of rate-compatible LDPC codes with code rates varying "continuously" from 0.1 to 0.9 for additive…
Sparse regression codes (SPARCs) are a class of codes that encode information through the superposition of columns of a randomised coding matrix. The combination with an outer non-binary low density parity check (NB-LDPC) code was recently…

Fault-tolerance using constant space-overhead against long-range correlated errors is an important practical question. In the pioneering works [Terhal and Burkard, PRA 2005], [Aliferis et al, PRA 2005], [Aharonov et al, PRL 2006],…
Scalable quantum computation requires not only quantum codes with low memory overhead but also encoded operations with low space-time overhead. High rate quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes address the former by achieving a high…

An irregular LDGM-LDPC code is studied as a sub-code of an LDPC code with some randomly \emph{punctured} output-bits. It is shown that the LDGM-LDPC codes achieve rates arbitrarily close to the channel-capacity of the binary-input…

In magnetic-recording systems, consecutive sections experience different signal to noise ratios (SNRs). To perform error correction over these systems, one approach is to use an individual block code for each section. However, the…
