Abstract

The efficiency of Error Correcting Codes (ECCs) arises when data should be transmitted via noisy channel. Many types of ECCs have been proposed so far, but ECCs with low encoding/decoding complexity are demanded when energy consumption is highly considered (e.g. networks using nanoscale devices). For such a situation, Irregular Repeat Accumulate (IRA) codes, a class of Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes, can be suitable candidates as ECCs since their encoding and decoding complexities are known to be low. In this paper, we introduce a construction method of IRA codes based on Max-flow algorithm and show the performance of robustness for the Binary Erasure Channel (BEC).
