Abstract

We propose a family of binary erasure codes, namely, quasi-systematic doped LT (QS-DLT) codes that are almost systematic, universal, and asymptotically capacity-achieving with encoding and decoding complexity O(Klog(1/Ɛ)), where K is the information length, and Ɛ is the overhead. Finite-length analysis is carried out to study the error-floor behavior of our proposed codes. Numerical results verify that our proposed codes provide a low-complexity alternative to systematic Raptor codes with comparable performance.
