Oracle-based quantum algorithms cannot use deep loops because quantum states exist only as mathematical amplitudes in Hilbert space with no physical substrate. Criticall ...

Abstract: In this paper, we apply two improved min-sum algorithms, the normalized and offset min-sum algorithms, to the decoding of irregular LDPC codes. We show that the behavior of the two ...

Abstract: We introduce a novel soft-decision decoding algorithm for binary block codes named ordered reliability direct error pattern testing (ORDEPT). The proposed ...
