\section{Analysis and Simulation Results}%
\label{sec:lp:Analysis and Simulation Results}
In this section, \ac{LP} decoding using \ac{ADMM} is examined based on
simulation results for various codes.
First, the effect of the different parameters and how their values should be
chosen is investigated.
Subsequently, the decoding performance is observed and compared to that of
\ac{BP}.
Finally, the computational performance of the implementation and time
complexity of the algorithm are studied.

\subsection{Choice of Parameters}
The first two parameters to be investigated are the penalty parameter $\mu$
and the over-relaxation parameter $\rho$. \todo{Are these their actual names?}
A first approach to get some indication of the values that might be chosen
for these parameters is to look at how the decoding performance depends
on them.
The \ac{FER} is plotted as a function of $\mu$ and $\rho$ in figure
\ref{fig:admm:mu_rho}, for three different \acp{SNR}.
When varying $\mu$, $\rho$ is set to a constant value of 1 and when varying
$\rho$, $\mu$ is set to 5.
The behavior that can be observed is very similar to that of the
parameter $\gamma$ in proximal decoding, analyzed in section
\ref{sec:prox:Analysis and Simulation Results}.
A single optimal value giving optimal performance does not exist; rather,
as long as the value is chosen within a certain range, the performance is
approximately equally good.
\textbf{Game Plan}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Determine parameters
\item Make non-regular admm implementation use indexing instead of matrix vector
multiplication and simulate the pegreg, bch and 204.55.187 codes (parameter choice)
\item Computational performance
\item Comparison of proximal and admm (decoding performance and computational performance)
\item Find different codewords
\item Examine weird behavior when c is allowed to be negative
\item BP as comparison
\item Combination of proximal and BP
\end{enumerate}
\begin{itemize}
\item Choice of Parameters (Take decomposition paper as guide)
\begin{itemize}
\item mu
\item K
\item rho
\item epsilon pri / epslion dual
\end{itemize}
\item Decoding Performance
\begin{itemize}
\item FER and BER similar
\item DFR and FER pratically identical -> FER may be due to DFR
\item Compare to BP
\end{itemize}
\item Convergence Behavior
\begin{itemize}
\item Plot average error
\item Find out if converging to pseudocodeword or not converging.
How does pseudocodeword and not pseudocodeword relate to rounding and clipping?
\end{itemize}
\item Computational Performance
\begin{itemize}
\item Linear? Difficult to verify due to difference in adjustments
in the implementation for different codes

To aid in the choice of the parameters, an additional criterion can be used:
the number of iterations performed for a decoding operation.
This is directly related to the time needed to decode a received vector
$\boldsymbol{y}$, which the aim is to minimize.
Figure \ref{fig:admm:mu_rho_iterations} shows the average number of iterations
over $\SI{1000}{}$ decodings, as a function of $\rho$.
This time the \ac{SNR} is kept constant at $\SI{4}{dB}$ and the parameter
$\mu$ is varied.
It is visible that choosing a large value for $\rho$ as well as a small value
for $\mu$ minimizes the average number of iterations and thus the average
runtime of the decoding process.

To get an estimate for the parameter $K$, the average error during decoding
can be used.
This is shown in figure \ref{fig:admm:avg_error} as an average of
$\SI{100000}{}$ decodings.
Similarly to the results in section
\ref{sec:prox:Analysis and Simulation Results}, a dip is visible around the
$20$ iteration mark.
This is due to the fact that as the number of iterations increases
more and more decodings converge, leaving only the mistaken ones to be
averaged.
The point at which the wrong decodings start to become dominant and the
decoding performance does not increase any longer is largely independent of
the \ac{SNR}, allowing the value of $K$ to be chosen without considering the
\ac{SNR}.

The last two parameters remaining to be examined are the tolerances for the
stopping criterion of the algorithm, $\epsilon_\text{pri}$ and
$\epsilon_\text{dual}$.
These are considered as having the same value.
The effect of their value on the decoding performance is visualized in figure
\ref{fig:admm:epsilon} for a (3,6) regular \ac{LDPC} code with $n=204, k=102$
\cite[\text{204.33.484}]{mackay_enc}.
All parameters except $\epsilon_\text{pri}$ and $\epsilon_\text{dual}$ are
kept constant, with $K=200$, $\mu=5$, $\rho=1$ and $E_b / N_0 = \SI{4}{dB}$.
A lower value for the tolerance initially leads to a dramatic decrease in the
\ac{FER}, this effect fading as the tolerance becomes increasingly lower.

In conclusion, the parameters $\mu$ and $\rho$ should be chosen comparatively
small and large, respectively, to reduce the average runtime of the decoding
process, while keeping them within a certain range as to not compromise the
decoding performance.
The maximum number of iterations $K$ performed can be chosen independantly
of the \ac{SNR}.
Finally, relatively small values should be given to the parameters
$\epsilon_{\text{pri}}$ and $\epsilon_{\text{dual}}$ to achieve the lowest
possible error rate.
\subsection{Decoding Performance}
In figure \ref{fig:admm:results}, the simulation results for the ``Margulis''
\ac{LDPC} code ($n=2640$, $k=1320$) presented by Barman et al. in
\cite{original_admm} are compared to the results from the simulations
conducted in the context of this thesis.
The parameters chosen were $\mu=3.3$, $\rho=1.9$, $K=1000$,
$\epsilon_\text{pri}=10^{-5}$ and $\epsilon_\text{dual}=10^{-5}$,
the same as in \cite{original_admm};
the two \ac{FER} curves are practically identical.
Also shown is the curve resulting from \ac{BP} decoding, performing
1000 iterations.
The two algorithms perform relatively similarly, coming within $\SI{0.5}{dB}$
of one another.

In figure \ref{fig:admm:ber_fer}, the \ac{BER} and \ac{FER} for \ac{LP} decoding
using\ac{ADMM} and \ac{BP} are shown for a (3, 6) regular \ac{LDPC} code with
$n=204$.
To ensure comparability, in both cases the number of iterations was set to
$K=200$.
The values of the other parameters were chosen as $\mu = 5$, $\rho = 1$,
$\epsilon = 10^{-5}$ and $\epsilon=10^{-5}$.
Comparing figures \ref{fig:admm:results} and \ref{fig:admm:ber_fer} it is
apparent that the difference in decoding performance depends on the code being
considered.
More simulation results are presented in figure \ref{fig:comp:prox_admm_dec}

\label{fig:admm:ber_fer}
\end{figure}%
In summary, the decoding performance of \ac{LP} decoding using \ac{ADMM} comes
close to that of \ac{BP}, their difference staying in the range of
approximately $\SI{0.5}{dB}$, depending on the code in question.
\subsection{Computational Performance}
\label{subsec:admm:comp_perf}
In terms of time complexity, the three steps of the decoding algorithm
in equations (\ref{eq:admm:c_update}) - (\ref{eq:admm:u_update}) have to be
considered.
The $\tilde{\boldsymbol{c}}$- and $\boldsymbol{u}_j$-update steps are
$\mathcal{O}\left( n \right)$ \cite[Sec. III. C.]{original_admm}.
The complexity of the $\boldsymbol{z}_j$-update step depends on the projection
algorithm employed.
Since for the implementation completed for this work the projection algorithm
presented in \cite{original_admm} is used, the $\boldsymbol{z}_j$-update step
also has linear time complexity.

\caption{Timing requirements of the \ac{LP} decoding using \ac{ADMM} implementation}
\label{fig:admm:time}
\end{figure}%
Simulation results from a range of different codes can be used to verify this
analysis.
Figure \ref{fig:admm:time} shows the average time needed to decode one
frame as a function of its length.
\todo{List codes used}
The results are necessarily skewed because the codes considered vary not only
in their length, but also in their construction scheme and rate.
Additionally, different optimization opportunities arise depending on the
length of a code, since for smaller codes dynamic memory allocation can be
completely omitted.
This may explain why the datapoint at $n=504$ is higher then would be expected
with linear behavior.
Nonetheless, the simulation results roughly match the expected behavior
following from the theoretical considerations.
