Probabilistic Shaping for Asymmetric Channels and Low-Density Parity-Check Codes

Information Theory 2023-05-24 v1 math.IT

Abstract

An algorithm is proposed to encode low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes into codewords with a non-uniform distribution. This enables power-efficient signalling for asymmetric channels. We show gains of 0.9 dB for additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels with on-off keying modulation using 5G LDPC codes.
