Coding Theory

This course provides fundamentals on techniques for error-correction or detection. In this course, students study the basics of Finite Field Theory to understand algebraic codes, and based on this, they comprehend cyclic codes, BCH codes, Reed-Solomon codes. In addition, they acquire knowledge about channel codes defined on graphs, such as Convolutional codes, Turbo codes, Low-density Parity-check (LDPC) codes. This course also provides a short introduction to signal space codes.
