Overview

Convolutional encoding is a process of adding redundancy to a signal stream. Lattice's Convolutional Encoder core is a parameterizable core for convolutional encoding of a continuous input data stream. The core allows variable code rates, constraint lengths and generator polynomials. The core also supports puncturing. Puncturing enables a large range of transmission rates and reduces the bandwidth requirement on the channel.

Key features

  • Parameterizable continuous convolutional encoder
  • Available for ORCA Series 4 FPGA and FPSC devices.
  • Parameterizable constraint length from 3 to 12
  • Parameterizable convolutional codes
  • Parameterizable puncture codes
  • Puncturing input rates from 2 to 12
  • Puncturing output rates from 2 to 23

Practical Considerations of LDPC Decoder Design in Communications Systems

This paper covers some practical aspects of designing the LDPC decoder starting from comparison between different techniques, different decoders parameters or standards, the effect of those parameters on the LDPC performance, also it discusses the algorithm selection process, and floating point implementation process.

Audio Transport in DisplayPort VIP

DisplayPort uses Secondary Data Packets (SDPs), which are transported over the Main-Link that are not main video stream data. This allows it to carry audio and video simultaneously. The VIP supports audio transmission both in the original mode as defined in the specification as well as just as any other SDP being transmitted.
