The quantum analogue of the classical characteristic function for a spin 1/2 assembly is considered and the probability mass function of the random vector associated with the assembly is derived. It is seen that the positive regions of Wigner and Margenau-Hill quasi distributions for the three components of spin, correspond to a trivariate probability mass function. We identify the domain of th...

A new approach for encoding one class of quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check (QC-LDPC) codes is proposed. The proposed encoding method is applicable to parity-check matrices having dual-diagonal parity structure with single column of weight three in the parity generation region. Instead of finding the parity bits directly, the proposed method finds parity bits through vector correction. While...
