Disclosed are systems and methods for transmission and reception of data bits. A plurality of data bits are received. FEC-based encoded data bits are generated in accordance with a zipper code framework incorporating component non-binary codes. The zipper code framework includes a buffer having a virtual buffer and a real buffer. Codewords associated with the FEC-based encoded data bits are stored in rows of the real buffer. A given codeword in a given row of the real buffer is mapped to different rows of the virtual buffer in a quasi-diagonal interleaving manner.

Zipper code framework-based communication systems and methods

There is provided methods and processors for executing Forward Error Correction (FEC) coding. The method includes acquiring a stream of real data symbols from a communication medium. The stream of real data symbols being arranged in a real matrix. The method includes generating virtual data symbols being arranged in a virtual matrix. The generating includes applying an interleaver map onto the matrix such that (i) at most c number of virtual data symbols in a given virtual row of the virtual matrix are copies of (ii) real data symbols associated with a same real row of the real matrix, c being a positive integer higher than 1. The method includes decoding codewords formed by the virtual matrix and the matrix.
