Free-Ride BCH Codes for Fine-Grained Rate Adaptation: Construction, Decoding, and Analysis
In this paper, we propose free-ride BCH (FR-BCH) codes to enable fine-grained rate adaptation on conventional BCH codes. At the transmitter, a small number of extra bits are superimposed onto the BCH codeword via random or structured superpositions. At the receiver, all candidate extra-bit patterns are enumerated by a...
