Zusammenfassung:In this paper, a theoretical framework for the design and evaluation of finite block-length analog fountain codes (AFC) towards ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC) is proposed. First, based on the achievable rate analysis and extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) analysis for AFC, we propose a weight adaptive (WA) AFC transmission scheme by introducing a limited feedback link, which can realize the lowest complexity AFC over a wide range SNRs. Further, by combining the conventional EXIT analysis and the dispersion perspective of mutual information, we propose a modified weight selection scheme for short block length WA-AFC (SWA-AFC) scheme. Simulation results show that our SWA-AFC scheme can achieve a superior performance than the existing AFC schemes, and approaching to the Polyansky-Poor-Verdu (PPV) bound.
