Abstract: In the general purpose of Internet of Things (IoTs) applications and the next generation of wireless networks, ultra-high reliability and low latency communications (URLLC) are key technologies. As a noise-centric universal decoding algorithm, the Guessing Random Additive Noise Decoding (GRAND) algorithm is a promising technique for URLLC.
In this presentation, I will share our latest research progress on the GRAND-Markov Order (GRAND-MO) variant: i) High Efficient construction of the Noise Error Patterns (NEPs) for GRAND-MO. ii) Joint error detection and correction of Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) decoding by GRAND-MO in bursty channel. iii) Hardware implementation and testing of high throughput GRAND-MO decoding architecture for CRC.
Aiming for practical applications, we will highlight two challenges for future research: i) Residual Error Rate (REP) analysis of GRAND-MO-based CRC decoding. ii) Decoding complexity reduced GRAND-MO algorithms. I hope to trigger more discussions on these topics by this talk.
