Channel Codes

Channel coding lies at the heart of digital communication and data storage, and

this detailed introduction describes the core theory as well as decoding algorithms,

implementation details, and performance analyses.

Professors Ryan and Lin, known for the clarity of their writing, provide the

latest information on modern channel codes, including turbo and low-density

parity-check (LDPC) codes. They also present detailed coverage of BCH codes,

Reed–Solomon codes, convolutional codes, finite-geometry codes, and product

codes, providing a one-stop resource for both classical and modern coding

techniques.
