Rateless Codes on Noisy Channels

Citation:	Palanki, R.; Yedidia, J.S., "Rateless Codes on Noisy Channels", IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT), June 2004 (ISIT 2004)
MERL Report:	TR2004-038

We study the performance of the newly invented rateless codes (LT- and Raptor codes) on noisy channels such as the BSC and the AWGN channel. We find that Raptor codes outperform LT codes, and have good performance on a wide variety of noisy channels.
