Research of cognitive data processing in radio communication systems with permutation decoding

Background. The need to use permutation decoding tools in radio communication systems is explained by the increased error correction capabilities of this method. In this case, complex matrix calculations during the search for equivalent codes according to the classical scheme of permutation decoding are replaced by a list of ready-made solutions. These solutions are calculated a priori and entered into the cognitive cards of the decoder processor, which makes the method a convenient tool in the procedure for ensuring information reliability when controlling, for example, unmanned vehicles via radio channels. In fact, matrix calculations on board are replaced by searching the list of cognitive maps for the right solution corresponding in real time to the current permutation of reliable character numerators. However, data processing in the decoder’s cognitive map requires a special description. Aim. The study of methods for identifying permutations of character numerators of code vectors in order to effectively transform them in a system of cognitive maps of a permutation decoder. Methods. The paper reveals the subtle structure of cognitive maps of productive and unproductive permutations of numerators, which allows on a regular basis to obtain an alternative solution for switching to a set of productive permutations when the receiver receives an unproductive permutation, thereby excluding the use of trial and error. Results. The efficiency of the permutation decoder increases due to the implementation of permutations that were originally included in a set of solutions introduced into the cognitive map of unproductive permutations. Conclusion. A family of microcontrollers is proposed to implement the principle of interaction of cognitive maps with a system of alternative solutions.
