A circulant-based spatially-coupled (SC) code is constructed by partitioning the circulants of an underlying block code into a number of components, and then coupling copies of these components together. By connecting (coupling) several SC codes, multi-dimensional SC (MD-SC) codes are constructed. In this paper, we present a systematic framework for constructing MD-SC codes with notably better girth properties than their 1D-SC counterparts. In our framework, informed multi-dimensional coupling is performed via an optimal relocation and an (optional) power adjustment of problematic circulants in the constituent SC codes. Compared to the 1D-SC codes, our MD-SC codes are demonstrated to have up to 85% reduction in the population of the smallest cycle, and up to 3.8 orders of magnitude BER improvement in the early error floor region. The results of this work can be particularly beneficial in data storage systems, e.g., 2D magnetic recording and 3D Flash systems, as high-performance MD-SC codes are robust against various channel impairments and non-uniformity.

A circulant-based spatially-coupled (SC) code is constructed by partitioning the circulants in the parity-check matrix of a block code into several components and piecing copies of these components in a diagonal structure. By connecting several SC co des, multi-dimensional SC (MD-SC) codes are constructed. In this paper, we present a systematic framework for constructing MD-SC codes with notably better cycle properties than their one-dimensional counterparts. In our framework, the multi-dimensional coupling is performed via an informed relocation of problematic circulants. This work is general in the terms of the number of constituent SC codes that are connected together, the number of neighboring SC codes that each constituent SC code is connected to, and the length of the cycles whose populations we aim to reduce. Finally, we present a decoding algorithm that utilizes the structures of the MD-SC code to achieve lower decoding latency. Compared to the conventional SC codes, our MD-SC codes have a notably lower population of small cycles, and a dramatic BER improvement. The results of this work can be particularly beneficial in data storage systems, e.g., 2D magnetic recording and 3D Flash systems, as high-performance MD-SC codes are robust against various channel impairments and non-uniformity.

This paper investigates the design of spatially coupled low-density parity-check (SC-LDPC) codes constructed from connected-chain ensembles for bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) schemes. For short coupling lengths, connecting multiple SC-LDPC c hains can improve decoding performance over single-chains and impose structured unequal error protection (UEP). A joint design of connected-chain ensembles and bit mapping to further exploit the UEP from codes and high-order modulations is proposed. Numerical results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed design over existing connected-chain ensembles and over single-chain ensembles with existing bit mapping design.
The codewords of weight $10$ of the $[42,21,10]$ extended binary quadratic residue code are shown to hold a design of parameters $3-(42,10,18).$ Its automorphism group is isomorphic to $PSL(2,41)$. Its existence can be explained neither by a transitivity argument, nor by the Assmus-Mattson theorem.
In this paper, we propose a non-uniform windowed decoder for multi-dimensional spatially-coupled LDPC (MD-SC-LDPC) codes over the binary erasure channel. An MD-SC-LDPC code is constructed by connecting together several SC-LDPC codes into one larger c ode that provides major benefits over a variety of channel models. In general, SC codes allow for low-latency windowed decoding. While a standard windowed decoder can be naively applied, such an approach does not fully utilize the unique structure of MD-SC-LDPC codes. In this paper, we propose and analyze a novel non-uniform decoder to provide more flexibility between latency and reliability. Our theoretical derivations and empirical results show that our non-uniform decoder greatly improves upon the standard windowed decoder in terms of design flexibility, latency, and complexity.
We establish the existence of wave-like solutions to spatially coupled graphical models which, in the large size limit, can be characterized by a one-dimensional real-valued state. This is extended to a proof of the threshold saturation phenomenon fo r all such models, which includes spatially coupled irregular LDPC codes over the BEC, but also addresses hard-decision decoding for transmission over general channels, the CDMA multiple-access problem, compressed sensing, and some statistical physics models. For traditional uncoupled iterative coding systems with two components and transmission over the BEC, the asymptotic convergence behavior is completely characterized by the EXIT curves of the components. More precisely, the system converges to the desired fixed point, which is the one corresponding to perfect decoding, if and only if the two EXIT functions describing the components do not cross. For spatially coupled systems whose state is one-dimensional a closely related graphical criterion applies. Now the curves are allowed to cross, but not by too much. More precisely, we show that the threshold saturation phenomenon is related to the positivity of the (signed) area enclosed by two EXIT-like functions associated to the component systems, a very intuitive and easy-to-use graphical characterization. In the spirit of EXIT functions and Gaussian approximations, we also show how to apply the technique to higher dimensional and even infinite-dimensional cases. In these scenarios the method is no longer rigorous, but it typically gives accurate predictions. To demonstrate this application, we discuss transmission over general channels using both the belief-propagation as well as the min-sum decoder.
