A method for the redundant transmission of data by means of light-based communication may include a data stream to be transmitted that is converted into symbols. This data stream is converted from bipolar symbols into multiple partial data streams having e.g. unipolar-positive symbols. The partial data streams are converted into multiple semi-redundant signals that are then transmitted to the receiver via multiple light-based channels. In the receiver, the received signals are converted back again analogously to when they were sent, in order to obtain the original data stream again.

A wireless communication device, a wireless communication method, and a program capable of contributing to improvement of wireless communication technology related to IDMA.

Methods and apparatuses for HARQ in a non-terrestrial network are disclosed. An operation method of a first node may comprise receiving a transport block (TB) from a second node; classifying total soft bits for the TB into information values and sign values; configuring the information values of the total soft bits into one or more subsets; performing a compression operation on each of the one or more subsets; and performing a compression operation on the sign values. Therefore, performance of the communication system can be improved.

The present disclosure relates to a 5G or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data transfer rate beyond a 4G communication system, such as LTE. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for channel encoding in a communication system, the method comprising: encoding second data, using an outer channel code; determining a value corresponding to first data; arranging the encoded second data in a block size unit corresponding to the second data, based on the determined value; and encoding the arranged second data, using an inner channel code.

Embodiments of this application provide an information processing method and a coding apparatus. An information bit sequence includes a K-bit information block. The information bit sequence is to be processed into an encoded bit sequence with a target code length M, M>1024. For a given code rate R, when the length K of the information block is greater than a preset threshold, the information bit sequence is segmented into two or more segments. Each segment is polar encoded into an encoded subsequence. The encoded subsequence has a length that equals to a mother code length Ni, and i=1, 2, . . . , p. Each of the p encoded subsequences is rate matched to obtain a rate-matched encoded subsequence. A rate-matched encoded subsequence i of the p rate-matched encoded subsequences has a code length Mi. The p rate-matched encoded subsequences are concatenated into an encoded bit sequence which has a code length M.

The present invention related to a 5G or pre-5G communication system to be provided to support a higher data transmission rate since 4G communication systems like LTE. The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for encoding a channel in a communication or broadcasting system supporting parity-check matrices having various sizes are provided. The method for encoding a channel includes determining a block size of the parity-check matrix; reading a sequence for generating the parity-check matrix, and transforming the sequence by applying a previously defined operation to the sequence based on the determined block size.

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for low density parity check (LDPC)-based incremental redundancy (IR) hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) transmission processing. In one aspect, an apparatus for wireless communications is configured to generate a first packet using a LDPC encoding process. The apparatus is further configured to generate coded bits using a second LDPC encoding process if the first packet is not successfully decoded by a wireless device, generate a second packet including at least some of the coded bits generated using the second LDPC encoding process, and output the second packet for transmission.

A wireless communication system and device improve throughput in a propagation path environment where retransmission is repeated. In a transmission-side wireless communication device, transmission signal storage memories hold bit sequences related to two packet signals for which NACK has been returned, a helper packet generation unit operates the exclusive OR of bit sequences related to two or more of a predetermined number of packet signals held in the transmission signal storage memories, and a coding unit to a transmitting and receiving antenna transmits an auxiliary packet generated by coding a bit sequence of a helper packet that is a result of the exclusive OR operation when the number of packet signals for which NACK has been returned reaches the predetermined number.

A system and method for long term data retention in a flash memory. In some embodiments, the method includes transitioning the flash memory to a long term data retention state by re-storing first encoded data, the first encoded data being initially stored in the flash memory at a first code rate. The re-storing may include determining a second code rate, lower than the first code rate; reading the first encoded data from the flash memory; decoding the first encoded data at the first code rate to obtain first decoded data; encoding the first decoded data at the second code rate to form second encoded data; and storing the second encoded data in the flash memory.
