In this letter, we study the joint impact of user density, blockage density, and deployment area on the temporal correlation of interference for static users and users with uncorrelated mobility. Even if the user locations are uncorrelated over time, the interference level can still be correlated when the deployment area is bounded and/or there is blockage. We also show that at a high blockage density, the temporal correlation coefficients increase with the user-to-blockage density ratio.

In this paper, we present a novel bit flipping algorithm for high-throughput decoding of LDPC codes. The algorithm exploits the turbo principle to reduce the average number of iterations and employs a bit-local thresholding operation to remove the need for a block-wise minimum operation — which is common to many conventional bit flipping decoders — that hinders decoder throughput. Through simulations the proposed decoder is shown to achieve comparable bit-error rate performance to state-of-the-art techniques while requiring approximately half the number of iterations on average thus facilitating high-throughput decoding.
