The authors report the empirical performance of Gallager's low density parity check codes on Gaussian channels. It is shown that performance substantially better than that of standard convolutional and concatenated codes can be achieved; indeed the performance is almost as close to the Shannon limit as that of Turbo codes.

Inspec keywords: Gaussian channels; error correction codes

Other keywords: empirical performance; ECC; near Shannon limit performance; low density parity check codes; Gaussian channels

Subjects: Codes
