We introduce generalized spatially coupled parallel concatenated codes (GSC-PCCs), a class of spatially coupled turbo-like codes obtained by coupling parallel concatenated codes (PCCs) with a fraction of information bits repeated before the PCC encoding. GSC-PCCs can be seen as a generalization of the original spatially coupled parallel concatenated convolutional codes (SC-PCCs) proposed by Moloudi et al. [1]. To characterize the asymptotic performance of GSC-PCCs, we derive the corresponding density evolution equations and compute their decoding thresholds. We show that the proposed codes have some nice properties such as threshold saturation and that their decoding thresholds improve with the repetition factor $q$. Most notably, our analysis suggests that the proposed codes asymptotically approach the capacity as $q$ tends to infinity with any given constituent convolutional code.

Spatially coupled serially concatenated codes (SC-SCCs) are a class of spatially coupled turbo-like codes, which have a close-to-capacity performance and low error floor. In this paper we investigate the impact of coupling memory, block length, decoding window size, and number of iterations on the performance, complexity, and latency of SC-SCCs. Several design tradeoffs are presented to see the relation between these parameters in a wide range. Also, our analysis provides design guidelines for SC-SCCs in different scenarios to make the code design independent of block length. As a result, block length and coupling memory can be exchanged flexibly without changing the latency and complexity. Also, we observe that the performance of SC-SCCs is improved with respect to the uncoupled ensembles for a fixed latency and complexity.
Two concatenated coding schemes incorporating algebraic Reed-Solomon (RS) codes and polarization-adjusted convolutional (PAC) codes are proposed. Simulation results show that at a bit error rate of $10^{-5}$, a concatenated scheme using RS and PAC codes has more than $0.25$ dB coding gain over the NASA standard concatenation scheme, which uses RS and convolutional codes.
We introduce the concept of generalized concatenated quantum codes. This generalized concatenation method provides a systematical way for constructing good quantum codes, both stabilizer codes and nonadditive codes. Using this method, we construct families of new single-error-correcting nonadditive quantum codes, in both binary and nonbinary cases, which not only outperform any stabilizer codes for finite block length, but also asymptotically achieve the quantum Hamming bound for large block length.
Generalized low-density parity-check (GLDPC) codes are a class of LDPC codes in which the standard single parity check (SPC) constraints are replaced by constraints defined by a linear block code. These stronger constraints typically result in improved error floor performance, due to better minimum distance and trapping set properties, at a cost of some increased decoding complexity. In this paper, we study spatially coupled generalized low-density parity-check (SC-GLDPC) codes and present a comprehensive analysis of these codes, including: (1) an iterative decoding threshold analysis of SC-GLDPC code ensembles demonstrating capacity approaching thresholds via the threshold saturation effect; (2) an asymptotic analysis of the minimum distance and free distance properties of SC-GLDPC code ensembles, demonstrating that the ensembles are asymptotically good; and (3) an analysis of the finite-length scaling behavior of both GLDPC block codes and SC-GLDPC codes based on a peeling decoder (PD) operating on a binary erasure channel (BEC). Results are compared to GLDPC block codes, and the advantages and disadvantages of SC-GLDPC codes are discussed.
Braided convolutional codes (BCCs) are a class of spatially coupled turbo-like codes that can be described by a $(2,3)$-regular compact graph. In this paper, we introduce a family of $(d_v,d_c)$-regular GLDPC codes with convolutional code constraints (CC-GLDPC codes), which form an extension of classical BCCs to arbitrary regular graphs. In order to characterize the performance in the waterfall and error floor regions, we perform an analysis of the density evolution thresholds as well as the finite-length ensemble weight enumerators and minimum distances of the ensembles. In particular, we consider various ensembles of overall rate $R=1/3$ and $R=1/2$ and study the trade-off between variable node degree and strength of the component codes. We also compare the results to corresponding classical LDPC codes with equal degrees and rates. It is observed that for the considered LDPC codes with variable node degree $d_v>2$, we can find a CC-GLDPC code with smaller $d_v$ that offers similar or better performance in terms of BP and MAP thresholds at the expense of a negligible loss in the minimum distance.
