Patent ID: 8347162

Claim:
A method for retransmitting information in accordance with a cognitive radio, anti-jamming coding scheme comprising: receiving an indication of un-recovered packets; determining that a first code graph including a representation of code bits within un-recovered packets has a minimum bit error probability by employing a jamming rate and a total number of packets that are un-recovered through decoding; encoding at least one of the un-recovered packets by applying a code based on the first code graph; and retransmitting at least one encoded un-recovered packet; wherein the determining comprises: setting a first element of a code graph representation to a total number of packets transmitted in parallel; iteratively decreasing a value of the first element to thereby distribute a value of a total number of packets transmitted in parallel to other elements in the code graph representation, wherein distribution is based on calculating a minimum bit error probability for each code graph configuration at each iteration step.
