Résumé du contexte et des objectifs généraux du projet

Next-generation optical and wireless communications require high-performance, high-speed, and low-power consumption error decoding structures. These requirements cannot be satisfied by VLSI-implemented soft-decision or hard-decision forward error correction (FEC), as both bear crucial limitations. The project Shaped Hybrid Forward Error Correction (SHY-FEC) combines hybrid channel coding and low-complexity constellation shaping. This combination was investigated as an alternative to satisfy the strict requirements of high-speed fiber optical communications. In this project, we realized an FPGA implementation of low-complexity shaping algorithms and also carried out pre-commercialisation activities related to the hybrid channel coding and low-complexity constellation shaping algorithms.
