FEC design for remote control and data transmission of aeronautic and astronautic vehicles
Abstract This paper focuses on the advanced Forward Error Correction (FEC) based on Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes for remote control and data transmission of Aeronautic and Astronautic Vehicles (AAV). It shows that the nontransparent LDPC codes with odd row weights are able to resist phase inversion with a small computational overhead. To the
