Abstract

In theory, Polar codes do not exhibit an error floor under successive-cancellation (SC) decoding. In practice, frame error rate (FER) down to $10^{-12}$ has not been reported with a real SC list (SCL) decoder hardware. This paper presents an asymmetric adaptive SCL (A2SCL) decoder, implemented in real hardware, for high-throughput and ultra-reliable communications. We propose to concatenate multiple SC decoders with an SCL decoder, in which the numbers of SC/SCL decoders are balanced with respect to their area and latency. In addition, a novel unequal-quantization technique is adopted. The two optimizations are crucial for improving SCL throughput within limited chip area. As an application, we build a link-level FPGA emulation platform to measure ultra-low FERs of 3GPP NR Polar codes (with parity-check and CRC bits). It is flexible to support all list sizes up to $8$, code lengths up to $1024$ and arbitrary code rates. With the proposed hardware, decoding speed is 7000 times faster than a CPU core. For the first time, FER as low as $10^{-12}$ is measured and quantization effect is analyzed.

Abstract

Polar codes has been selected as 5G standard. However, only a couple of ASIC featuring decoders are fabricated,and none of them support list size L > 4 and code length N > 1024. This paper presents an ASIC implementation of three decoders for polar code: successive cancellation (SC) decoder, flexible decoder and ultra-reliable decoder. These decoders are all SC based decoder, supporting list size up to 1,8,32 and code length up to 2^15,2^14,2^11 respectively. This chip is fabricated in a 16nm TSMC FinFET technology, and can be clocked at 1 Ghz. Optimization techniques are proposed and employed to increase throughput. Experiment result shows that the throughput can achieve up to 5.16Gbps. Compared with fabricated AISC decoder and synthesized decoder in literature, the flexible decoder achieves higher area efficiency.

25. $\beta$-expansion: A Theoretical Framework for Fast and Recursive Construction of Polar Codes

Abstract

In this work, we introduce $\beta$-expansion, a notion borrowed from number theory, as a theoretical framework to study fast construction of polar codes based on a recursive structure of universal partial order (UPO) and polarization weight (PW) algorithm. We show that polar codes can be recursively constructed from UPO by continuously solving several polynomial equations at each recursive step. From these polynomial equations, we can extract an interval for $\beta$, such that ranking the synthetic channels through a closed-form $\beta$-expansion preserves the property of nested frozen sets, which is a desired feature for low-complex construction. In an example of AWGN channels, we show that this interval for $\beta$ converges to a constant close to $1.1892 \approx 2^{1/4}$ when the code block-length trends to infinity. Both asymptotic analysis and simulation results validate our theoretical claims.

Abstract

Ship berthing is one of the most challenging operations for crews, involving optimal trajectory generation and intricate harbor maneuvering at low speed. In this paper, we present a practical path-planning method that generates smooth trajectories for an underactuated surface vehicle (USV) traveling in a confined harbor environment. Our approach introduces a Generalized Voronoi Diagram (GVD)-based path planner to handle the unberthing phase. The hybrid A* search-based path finding method is used for the transportation phase. A simple planner based on a Bézier curve is proposed for the berthing phase. To track the target path, an adaptive pure pursuit method and proportional-derivative (PD) controller is used. The performance of the given method is tested numerically and experimentally on a catamaran with a pair of non-steerable thrusters. The results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can achieve a successful berthing operation through static obstacle handling and smooth trajectory generation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Aims/Background Coronary heart disease is a common disease in the elderly and has a complex pathogenesis, which complicates the clinical diagnostic process. Thus, enhancing the diagnostic efficiency for coronary heart disease is imperative to improve the life expectancy of the elderly. This study aimed to explore the diagnostic value of multimodal cardiovascular imaging technology coupled with biomarker detection in elderly patients with coronary heart disease. Methods The medical records of 421 patients with suspected coronary heart disease obtained from the geriatric department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University from February 2020 to February 2023 were retrospectively analysed. After excluding 10 patients who did not meet the inclusion criteria, the remaining 411 patients were included in this study. The included subjects had undergone coronary computed tomography angiography and were divided into coronary heart disease group (n=208) and non-coronary heart disease group (n=203) according to the diagnostic results. Multimodal cardiovascular imaging (coronary computed tomography angiography and echocardiography) and detection of serum biomarkers such as small dense low-density lipoprotein, lipoprotein a, and gamma-glutamyl transferase were performed in both groups. The clinical indicators of the two groups were compared, and the combined diagnostic efficacy of multimodal cardiovascular imaging and biomarker detection was evaluated. Results Compared to the non-coronary heart disease group, the coronary heart disease group had significantly higher levels of maximum area stenosis, total plaque volume, total plaque burden and fibrotic plaque volume (p <..001), and lower left ventricular ejection fraction level (p <..001). Additionally, the coronary heart disease group exhibited higher levels of left ventricular end-diastolic volume, left ventricular end-systolic volume and stroke volume than the non-coronary heart disease group (p <..001), and had higher levels of small dense low-density lipoprotein, lipoprotein a and gamma-glutamyl transferase (p <..001). Our results demonstrated that combined diagnosis had better diagnostic efficacy than individual approaches, marked by higher area under the curve and sensitivity of the former (p <..001). Conclusion Multimodal cardiovascular imaging technology combined with biomarker detection can distinctly improve the accuracy of coronary heart disease diagnosis in elderly patients.

Abstract

Low‐permeability layer (LPL), formed by natural deposit or artificial reclamation and commonly found below the intertidal zone of coastal groundwater system, can retard the ingress of seawater and contaminants, and shorten the travel time of the land‐sourced contaminant to the marine environment compared with a homogenous sandy coastal aquifer. However, there is limited understanding on how an intertidal LPL, a condition occurred in a coastal aquifer at Moreton Bay, Australia, influences the groundwater and contaminant transport across the shallow beach aquifer system. We characterized the aquifer hydrological parameters, monitored the in situ groundwater heads, and constructed a 2‐D numerical model to analyses the cross‐shore hydrological processes in this stratified system. The calibrated model suggests that in the lower aquifer, the inland‐source fresh groundwater flowed horizontally towards the sea, upwelled along the freshwater–saltwater interface, and exited the aquifer at the shore below the LPL. Whereas in the upper aquifer, the tidally driven seawater circulation formed a barrier that prevented fresh groundwater from horizontal transport and discharge to the beach above the LPL, thereby directing its leakage to the lower aquifer. A contaminant represented by a conservative tracer was 'released' the upper aquifer in the model and results showed that the spreading extent of the contaminant plume, the maximum rate of contaminant discharge to the ocean, and its plume length decreased compared with a simulation case in a homogenous sandy aquifer. Sensitivity analysis was also conducted to investigate the characteristics of the LPL, including its continuity and hydraulic conductivity, which were found to vary along the beach at Moreton Bay. The result shows that with a lower hydraulic conductivity and continuous layer of LPL reduced the groundwater exchange and contaminant transport between upper and lower aquifer. The findings from the combined field and modelling investigations on the impact of an intertidal LPL on coastal aquifer systems highlight its significant implications to alter the groundwater and mass transport across the land–ocean interface.
