This paper presents the FPGA hardware design of a turbo decoder for the cdma2000 standard. The work includes a study and mathematical analysis of the turbo decoding process, based on the MAX-Log-MAP algorithm. Results of decoding for a packet size of two hundred fifty bits are presented, as well as an analysis of area versus performance, and the key variables for hardware design in turbo decoding.

We propose without loss of generality strategies to achieve a high-throughput FPGA-based architecture for a QC-LDPC code based on a circulant-1 identity matrix construction. We present a novel representation of the parity-check matrix (PCM) providing a multi-fold throughput gain. Splitting of the node processing algorithm enables us to achieve pipelining of blocks and hence layers. By partitioning the PCM into not only layers but superlayers we derive an upper bound on the pipelining depth for the compact representation. To validate the architecture, a decoder for the IEEE 802.11n (2012) QC-LDPC is implemented on the Xilinx Kintex-7 FPGA with the help of the FPGA IP compiler [2] available in the NI LabVIEW Communication System Design Suite (CSDS) which offers an automated and systematic compilation flow where an optimized hardware implementation from the LDPC algorithm was generated in approximately 3 minutes, achieving an overall throughput of 608Mb/s (at 260MHz). As per our knowledge this is the fastest implementation of the IEEE 802.11n QC-LDPC decoder using an algorithmic compiler.
This paper summarizes the design of a programmable processor with transport triggered architecture (TTA) for decoding LDPC and turbo codes. The processor architecture is designed in such a manner that it can be programmed for LDPC or turbo decoding f or the purpose of internetworking and roaming between different networks. The standard trellis based maximum a posteriori (MAP) algorithm is used for turbo decoding. Unlike most other implementations, a supercode based sum-product algorithm is used for the check node message computation for LDPC decoding. This approach ensures the highest hardware utilization of the processor architecture for the two different algorithms. Up to our knowledge, this is the first attempt to design a TTA processor for the LDPC decoder. The processor is programmed with a high level language to meet the time-to-market requirement. The optimization techniques and the usage of the function units for both algorithms are explained in detail. The processor achieves 22.64 Mbps throughput for turbo decoding with a single iteration and 10.12 Mbps throughput for LDPC decoding with five iterations for a clock frequency of 200 MHz.
Present-day communication systems routinely use codes that approach the channel capacity when coupled with a computationally efficient decoder. However, the decoder is typically designed for the Gaussian noise channel and is known to be sub-optimal f or non-Gaussian noise distribution. Deep learning methods offer a new approach for designing decoders that can be trained and tailored for arbitrary channel statistics. We focus on Turbo codes and propose DeepTurbo, a novel deep learning based architecture for Turbo decoding. The standard Turbo decoder (Turbo) iteratively applies the Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv (BCJR) algorithm with an interleaver in the middle. A neural architecture for Turbo decoding termed (NeuralBCJR), was proposed recently. There, the key idea is to create a module that imitates the BCJR algorithm using supervised learning, and to use the interleaver architecture along with this module, which is then fine-tuned using end-to-end training. However, knowledge of the BCJR algorithm is required to design such an architecture, which also constrains the resulting learned decoder. Here we remedy this requirement and propose a fully end-to-end trained neural decoder - Deep Turbo Decoder (DeepTurbo). With novel learnable decoder structure and training methodology, DeepTurbo reveals superior performance under both AWGN and non-AWGN settings as compared to the other two decoders - Turbo and NeuralBCJR. Furthermore, among all the three, DeepTurbo exhibits the lowest error floor.
Molecular similarity search has been widely used in drug discovery to identify structurally similar compounds from large molecular databases rapidly. With the increasing size of chemical libraries, there is growing interest in the efficient accelerat ion of large-scale similarity search. Existing works mainly focus on CPU and GPU to accelerate the computation of the Tanimoto coefficient in measuring the pairwise similarity between different molecular fingerprints. In this paper, we propose and optimize an FPGA-based accelerator design on exhaustive and approximate search algorithms. On exhaustive search using BitBound & folding, we analyze the similarity cutoff and folding level relationship with search speedup and accuracy, and propose a scalable on-the-fly query engine on FPGAs to reduce the resource utilization and pipeline interval. We achieve a 450 million compounds-per-second processing throughput for a single query engine. On approximate search using hierarchical navigable small world (HNSW), a popular algorithm with high recall and query speed. We propose an FPGA-based graph traversal engine to utilize a high throughput register array based priority queue and fine-grained distance calculation engine to increase the processing capability. Experimental results show that the proposed FPGA-based HNSW implementation has a 103385 query per second (QPS) on the Chembl database with 0.92 recall and achieves a 35x speedup than the existing CPU implementation on average. To the best of our knowledge, our FPGA-based implementation is the first attempt to accelerate molecular similarity search algorithms on FPGA and has the highest performance among existing approaches.
In this paper a discussion of the detailed operation of the interleavers used by the turbo codes defined on the telecommunications standards cdma2000 (3GPP2 C.S0024-B V2.0) and W-CDMA (3GPP TS 25.212 V7.4.0) is presented. Differences in the approach used by each turbo interleaver as well as dispersion analysis and frequency analysis are also discussed. Two examples are presented to illustrate the complete interleaving process defined by each standard. These two interleaving approaches are also representative for other communications standards.
