Scalable Syndrome-based Neural Decoders for Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulations

In this work, we introduce a framework that enables the use of Syndrome-Based Neural Decoders (SBND) for high-order Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulations (BICM). To this end, we extend the previous results on SBND, for which the validity is limited to Binary Phase-Shift Keying (BPSK), by means of a theoretical channel modeling of the bit Log-Likelihood Ratio (bit-LLR) induced outputs. We implement the proposed SBND system for two polar codes $(64,32)$ and $(128,64)$, using a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and a Transformer-based architecture. Both implementations are compared in Bit Error Rate (BER) performance and computational complexity.

Improved Syndrome-based Neural Decoder for Linear Block Codes

In this work, we investigate the problem of neural-based error correction decoding, and more specifically, the new so-called syndrome-based decoding technique introduced to tackle scalability in the training phase for larger code sizes. We improve on previous works in terms of allowing full decoding of the message rather than codewords, allowing thus the application to non-systematic codes, and proving that the single-message training property is still viable. The suggested system is implemented and tested on polar codes of sizes (64,32) and (128,64), and a BCH of size (63,51), leading to a significant improvement in both Bit Error Rate (BER) and Frame Error Rate (FER), with gains between 0.3dB and 1dB for the implemented codes in the high Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) regime.
