Generalized Staircase Codes with Arbitrary Bit Degree
Mohannad Shehadeh, Frank R. Kschischang, Alvin Y. Sukmadji · 2024
We introduce a natural generalization of staircase codes in which each bit is protected by arbitrarily many component codewords rather than two. This enables powerful energy-efficient FEC based on iterative decoding of Hamming components.
