Recent progress in forward error correction (FEC) for optical communications is reviewed.
The various types of FEC are classified as belonging to one of three generations. A third-…

Since the introduction of coherent transponders, forward error correction based on soft
decision is now established in optical communication. In this paper, we give a tutorial-style …

… The sporadic packet loss typical of wireless channels can be addressed using appropriate
techniques such as the widely used packet-level forward error correction. In designing …

In modern telecommunication systems, FEC has been widely used. The emergence and
development of this technology is the need of the telecommunication system itself. In the …

… This has revitalized the research and commercialization interest in employing strong forward
error correction (FEC) codes and more sophisticated modulation schemes. The concept …

… In this paper we presented AFF3CT, a forward error correction toolbox that enables high
throughput simulations thanks to multi-node, multi-threaded and vectorization paradigms. …

Forward error correction ( forward error correction (FEC) ) is an essential technique required
in almost all communication systems to guarantee reliable data transmission close to the …

… data storage media, specifically tailored forward error correction schemes have to be applied.
For … Our forward error correction scheme is able to cope with all error types of today’s DNA …

Coding and decoding can be considered as a mapping and de-mapping between the elements
of two sequence sets. For the two sequence sets A and B, mapping a symbol sequence …

In this paper we present a couple of tools developed by the author on FreeBSD, and
available from the author's Web page in source format. The rst one, called dummynet, is a tool …
