Abstract
A fixed-to-fixed (F2F) length distribution matching (DM) based on Huffman coding and a random transformation of the input sequence is presented. The proposed algorithm necessitates small amounts of memory, is low-complexity, and delivers nearly the same performance as the enumerative sphere shaping (ESS). Furthermore, the proposed algorithm increases the speeds of matching and dematching and decreases the latency significantly, especially at the receiver.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Communications Letters publishes short papers in a rapid publication cycle on advances in the state-of-the-art of communication over different media and channels including wire, underground, waveguide, optical fiber, and storage channels. Both theoretical contributions (including new techniques, concepts, and analyses) and practical contributions (including system experiments and prototypes, and new applications) are encouraged. This journal focuses on the physical layer and the link layer of communication systems.
