    Visible light communication (VLC) is an emerging technology to fulfill both illumination and communication purposes considered as either an alternative or a support system for some of scenarios carried by RF communication systems. Colour shift keying (CSK) is the modulation given in IEEE 802.15.7 VLC standard which proposes Reed-Solomon as error correction code. Polar code is the first theoretically proven capacity achieving error correction code with low encoding and decoding complexities. Performance of Polar code with belief propagation decoder has not been studied under VLC CSK scheme. In this study we investigate performance of Polar code with belief propagation decoder under VLC CSK scheme and compare it with performance of Reed-Solomon code. Result show that Polar code with belief propagation decoder outperforms Reed-Solomon code by at least 1.5dB.

    Hardware Friendly Early Stopping Structure For Polar Code

    Simsek, Cemaleddin; Albayrak, Cenk; Türk, Kadir

    Polar code has become a major milestone in information theory field in recent times. Researchers are still observing more efficient encoding and decoding structures. In this study, a new WIB based structure is proposed which reduces the computational complexity of WIB introduced as an early termination method for BP polar decoder in literature. Both proposed and WIB methods are implemented with VHDL and hardware complexities are compared via XILINX ISE synthesis tool. Most important complexity reduction came with removing unnecessary addition operations which make early termination method possible to implement only with hit-wise logical operations. Results show that along with complexity reduction proposed approach can also acquire same performance in half time compared to previous counterpart with fewer logic gates.

    Hardware optimization for belief propagation polar code decoder with early stopping Criteria using high-speed parallel-prefix ling adder

    Simsek, Cemaleddin; Turk, Kadir; Herencsar, N.

    Belief propagation (BP) polar code decoder is well-studied from many aspects. This study proposes a hardware optimization to improve performance of polar BP decoder by modifying both processing element (PE) and early stopping criterion (ESC). PE is optimized by using high-speed parallel-prefix Ling adder instead of carry ripple adder and WIB ESC introduced in literature is optimized by removing unnecessary adder array. FPGA implementation is made to verify the idea behind this study. The results show that throughput of polar code belief propagation decoder can be increase significantly by using proposed approach. More accurate comparison can be made by application specific chip design with same parameters. This part of the study will be held in future.
