Spatially coupled regular LDPC code ensembles have outstanding performance with belief propagation decoding and can perform close to the Shannon limit. In this paper we investigate the suitability of coupled regular LDPC code ensembles with respect to rate-flexibility. Regular ensembles with good performance and low complexity exist for a variety of specific code rates. On the other hand it can be
We are advancing stem cell research, unlocking the potential of stem cells to develop improved treatments and cures for the patients of tomorrow. A stem cell is a cell that can both replicate itself and develop into various specialised cells in the body, such as blood cells, nerve cells or insulin-producing cells. This combination of unique abilities makes stem cells an invaluable resource when pa

We conduct advanced research on the climate – exploring what affects it, historical patterns, biosphere-atmosphere interactions, and what we can expect in the future with a changing climate. The effects of climate change are already becoming apparent: average global temperatures are rising, ice is melting, and sea levels are rising. All aspects of life are being affected. Conditions for people and

Logging activities and the associated creation of roads and tracks can disturb and fragment forests, which may lead to a loss of forest-dependent species and possibly favour nonforest generalists and edge species. The effects of such disturbance are poorly known for African insectivorous bats. We studied the activity patterns of insectivorous bats in a tropical African forest at Kibale National Pa
