Query: Connecting Spatially Coupled LDPC Code Chains   Codes constructed from connected spatially coupled low-density parity-check
code (SC-LDPCC) chains are proposed and analyzed. It is demonstrated that
connecting coupled chains results in improved iterative decoding performance.
The constructed protograph ensembles have better iterative decoding thresholds
compared to an individual SC-LDPCC chain and require less computational
complexity per bit when operating in the near-threshold region. In addition, it
is shown that the proposed constructions are asymptotically good in terms of
minimum distance.
