Abstract
This paper presents a novel error detection and correction codes, called the Low Complexity Parity Check (LCPC) codes that detect and correct consecutive and non-consecutive bit errors. The proposed codes can be used as a Forward Error Correction (FEC) scheme for Internet of Things (IoT) applications and specifically Wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Besides, the LCPC codes have less complexity and lower memory requirement as compared to the Reed Solomon (RS) and Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes. The LCPC codes do not require reiteration in the decoding process as in LDPC codes. Moreover, Simulation results show that the proposed LCPC codes outperform the Hamming, RS and LDPC codes while keeping the computational complexity very low. This leads prolonged battery lifetime due to the reduced number of retransmissions, and thus makes the LCPC more suitable for numerous emerging IoT applications.
