Download or read book Performance Analysis of Linear Codes Under Maximum-likelihood Decoding written by Igal Sason and published by Now Publishers Inc. This book was released on 2006 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performance Analysis of Linear Codes under Maximum-Likelihood Decoding: A Tutorial focuses on the performance evaluation of linear codes under optimal maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding. Though the ML decoding algorithm is prohibitively complex for most practical codes, their performance analysis under ML decoding allows to predict their performance without resorting to computer simulations. Performance Analysis of Linear Codes under Maximum-Likelihood Decoding: A Tutorial is a comprehensive introduction to this important topic for students, practitioners and researchers working in communications and information theory.
