Performance bounds for spatially-coupled LDPC codes over the block erasure channel
Alan Jule, Iryna Andriyanova · 2013
The paper provides simple lower and upper bounds on block PBand bit Pbperformances of spatially-coupled LDPC (SC-LDPC) codes over a particular model of the block erasure channel. As expected, the spatial coupling structure helps in the correction of bursty erasures, and the decoding performance of SC-LDPC codes improves if the coupling parameter w increases.
