DECODING OF MATRIX-PRODUCT CODES

Fernando Hernando, Diego Ruano

Abstract

We propose a decoding algorithm for the (u | u + v)-construction that decodes up to half of the minimum distance of the linear code. We extend this algorithm for a class of matrix-product codes in two different ways. In some cases, one can decode beyond the error-correction capability of the code.

Generalized minimum distance iterative decoding of Tanner codes

Saejoon Kim

In this letter, we present a linear-time decoding algorithm for Tanner codes that can correct errors up to close to half the minimum distance of the code. The algorithm is a simple generalization to the iterative decoding algorithm of expander codes proposed by Skachek and Roth (2003).

Hard- and soft-decision decoding beyond the half minimum distance---An algorithm for linear codes (Corresp.)

Martin Bossert, F. Hergert

A decoding algorithm for linear codes that uses the minimum weight words of the dual code as parity checks is defined. This algorithm is able to correct beyond the half minimum distance and has the capability of including soft-decision decoding. Results on applying this algorithm to quadratic residue (QR) codes, BCH codes, and the Golay codes (with and without soft-decision decoding) are presented.

Bounded-distance soft decision decoding of binary product codes

Ofer Amrani, Yair Be'ery

A two-step sub-optimal algorithm for decoding binary product codes is discussed. This algorithm realizes at least half the minimum Euclidean distance of the code. The fundamental geometric properties associated with the algorithm are investigated, and bounds on the number of nearest neighbors are derived. This investigation also results with an improved algorithm which achieves the minimum effective error coefficient, the number of minimum-weight codewords in the product code.

Quantum error-correcting codes from matrix-product codes related to quasi-orthogonal matrices and quasi-unitary matrices.

Meng Cao

Matrix-product codes over finite fields are an important class of long linear codes by combining several commensurate shorter linear codes with a defining matrix over finite fields. The construction of matrix-product codes with certain self-orthogonality over finite fields is an effective way to obtain good $q$-ary quantum codes of large length. Specifically, it follows from CSS construction (resp. Hermitian construction) that a matrix-product code over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ (resp. $\mathbb{F}_{q^{2}}$) which is Euclidean dual-containing (resp. Hermitian dual-containing) can produce a $q$-ary quantum code. In order to obtain such matrix-product codes, a common way is to construct quasi-orthogonal matrices (resp. quasi-unitary matrices) as the defining matrices of matrix-product codes over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ (resp. $\mathbb{F}_{q^{2}}$). The usage of NSC quasi-orthogonal matrices or NSC quasi-unitary matrices in this process enables the minimum distance lower bound of the corresponding quantum codes to reach its optimum. This article has two purposes: the first is to summarize some results of this topic obtained by the author of this article and his cooperators in \cite{Cao2020Constructioncaowang,Cao2020New,Cao2020Constructionof}; the second is to add some new results on quasi-orthogonal matrices (resp. quasi-unitary matrices), Euclidean dual-containing (resp. Hermitian dual-containing) matrix-product codes and $q$-ary quantum codes derived from these newly constructed matrix-product codes.

Matrix-product codes over finite fields are an important class of long linear codes by combining several commensurate shorter linear codes with a defining matrix over finite fields. The construction of matrix-product codes with certain self-orthogonality over finite fields is an effective way to obtain good qqq-ary quantum codes of large length. Specifically, it follows from CSS construction (resp. Hermitian construction) that a matrix-product code over Fq\mathbb{F}_{q}Fq​ (resp. Fq2\mathbb{F}_{q^{2}}Fq2​) which is Euclidean dual-containing (resp. Hermitian dual-containing) can produce a qqq-ary quantum code. In order to obtain such matrix-product codes, a common way is to construct quasi-orthogonal matrices (resp. quasi-unitary matrices) as the defining matrices of matrix-product codes over Fq\mathbb{F}_{q}Fq​ (resp. Fq2\mathbb{F}_{q^{2}}Fq2​).
