About

Bane Vasić is a professor of electrical, computing, and software engineering and mathematics at the University of Arizona and a director of the Error Correction Laboratory. He is an inventor of the soft error-event decoding algorithm for inter symbol interference channels with correlated noise, and the key architect of a detector/decoder for Bell Labs data storage read channel chips which were regarded as the best in industry. His pioneering work on structured low-density parity check (LDPC) error correcting codes based on combinatorial designs has enabled low-complexity iterative decoder implementations. Structured LDPC codes are today adopted in a number of communications standards and data storage systems. Vasić's work on codes on graphs, trapping sets and error floor of iterative decod
