Construction methods and analysis tools for repeat-accumulate error correction codes

纠错码在数字通信系统中扮演着不可或缺的角色，使光盘播放器、硬盘驱动器、高速调制解调器、数字音频广播和深空通信等技术成为可能。该项目开发了作为下一代纠错技术成功基础的技术，从而解决了信息和通信技术(信通技术)领域的一个重要和根本问题。该项目的性质表明，项目成果在包括无线网络、移动通信和数据存储在内的广泛应用领域对澳大利亚电信业具有巨大的潜力。

Error correction codes play an integral role in digital communications systems, enabling technologies such as compact-disk players, hard-disk drives, high-speed modems, digital audio broadcasting and deep-space communications. This project develops the techniques which underlie the success of next-generation error correction technologies and thus addresses an important and fundamental problem in the area of information and communications technology (ICT). The nature of the project presents significant potential for project outcomes to be beneficial to the Australian telecommunications industry in a wide range of application areas including wireless networks, mobile communications, and data storage.
