Generalized LDCP codes with component reed-solomon codes for beyond 100 Gb/s optical transmission
Ivan B. Djordjević, Lei Xu, Ting Wang · 2008
We present a hard-decision decoding FEC scheme suitable for use in beyond 100 Gb/s transmission. It is based on generalized LDPC (GLDPC) codes with component RS codes. The GLPDC code of code rate 0.82 with component codes being (255,239) and (255,223) RS codes, provides the net effective coding gain of 9.67 dB at BER of 10-15.
