Magnetization enumerator for real-valued symmetric channels in Gallager error-correcting codes

Using the magnetization enumerator method, we evaluate the practical and theoretical limitations of symmetric channels with real outputs. Results are presented for several regular Gallager code constructions.

Magnetization enumerator for LDPC codes - a statistical physics approach

We propose a method based on the magnetization enumerator to determine the critical noise level for Gallager type low density parity check error correcting codes (LDPC). Our method provides an appealingly simple interpretation to the relation between different decoding schemes, and provides more optimistic critical noise levels than those reported in the information theory literature.

A statistical-mechanical analysis of coded CDMA with regular LDPC codes

We analyze, using the replica method of statistical mechanics, the theoretical performance of coded code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems in which regular low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are used for channel coding.

Average error exponent in Gallager low-density parity-check codes

We present a theoretical method for a direct evaluation of the average error exponent in Gallager error-correcting codes using methods of statistical physics. Results for the binary symmetric channel(BSC)are presented for codes of both finite and infinite connectivity.
