Error correction using cyclic code-based LDPC codes
Techniques are described for joint encoding and decoding of information symbols. In one embodiment, a method for joint encoding includes, in part, obtaining a sequence of information symbols, generating a plurality of cyclic codewords each corresponding to a portion of the sequence of information symbols, jointly encoding the plurality of cyclic codewords to generate at least one combined codeword, and providing the combined codeword to a device. The at least one combined codeword may be generated through Galois Fourier Transform (GFT). In one embodiment, a method for joint decoding includes, in part, obtaining a sequence of encoded symbols, wherein the sequence of encoded symbols is generated through GFT, jointly decoding the sequence of encoded symbols using an iterative soft decision decoding algorithm to generate a decoded sequence, transforming the decoded sequence to generate a plurality of cyclic codewords, and decoding the plurality of cyclic codewords to generate a plurality of decoded information symbols.
