Description

This course introduces the concepts of error-correcting coding for 5th generation systems, namely Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) and polar codes, which are now widely used in other telecommunications standards such as LTE, WiFi and DVB. In this course, we will introduce the concepts related to these two codes and their associated decoding.
