LDPC codes: tracking non-stationary channel noise using sequential variational Bayesian estimates

We present a sequential Bayesian learning method for tracking non-stationary signal-to-noise ratios in LDPC codes using probabilistic graphical models. We represent the LDPC code as a cluster graph using a general purpose cluster graph construction algorithm called the layered trees running intersection property (LTRIP) algorithm. The channel noise estimator is... Show more
