The error-correcting capabilities of low-complexity decoded H-LDPC code as irregular LDPC code

Abstract

This paper deals with the Low-Density Parity-Check codes with the constituent Hamming codes (H-LDPC codes) and two different iterative hard-decision low-complexity decoding algorithms. Both algorithms are based on the same main idea: the decreasing of the syndrome weight on each step of the decoding algorithm. The first decoding algorithm uses the properties of the constituent Hamming code. The best known lower-bound on the guaranteed corrected errors fraction for the H-LDPC codes under the first decoding algorithm was obtained in 2011. The second decoding algorithm considers H-LDPC as the irregular LDPC code and uses the well-known majority decoding algorithm. The lower-bound on the guaranteed corrected errors fraction for H-LDPC code under the second decoding algorithm is introduced for the first time in this paper. Numerical results for the lower-bound, obtained in this paper for H-LDPC code under the second decoding algorithm, significantly exceed the numerical results for the best known lower-bounds, obtained previously for H-LDPC code under the first decoding algorithm.

On the error-correcting capabilities of low-complexity decoded irregular LDPC codes

Pavel S. Rybin

This paper deals with the irregular binary low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes with the constituent single parity check (SPC) codes and the error-correcting iterative low-complex decoding algorithm. The lower bound on the error fraction, guaranteed corrected by the considered iterative algorithm, was obtained for the irregular LDPC code for the first time in this paper. This lower bound was obtained as a result of analysis of Tanner graph representation of irregular LDPC code. The number of decoding iterations, required to correct the errors, is a logarithmic function of the code length. The numerical results, obtained at the end of the paper for proposed lower bound achieved similar results for the previously known best lower-bounds for regular LDPC codes and were represented for the first time for the irregular LDPC codes.

Correcting capabilities of binary irregular LDPC code under low-complexity iterative decoding algorithm

Pavel S. Rybin

This paper deals with the irregular binary low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes and two iterative low-complexity decoding algorithms. The first one is the majority error-correcting decoding algorithm, and the second one is iterative erasure-correcting decoding algorithm. The lower bounds on correcting capabilities (the guaranteed corrected error and erasure fraction respectively) of irregular LDPC code under decoding (error and erasure correcting respectively) algorithms with low-complexity were represented. These lower bounds were obtained as a result of analysis of Tanner graph representation of irregular LDPC code. The numerical results, obtained at the end of the paper for proposed lower-bounds achieved similar results for the previously known best lower-bounds for regular LDPC codes and were represented for the first time for the irregular LDPC codes.

Asymptotic estimation of error fraction corrected by binary LDPC code

Pavel S. Rybin, Victor Zyablov

This paper considers new lower bound on fraction of guaranteed corrected errors while decoding the same binary low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes with constituent single parity-check (SPC) and Hamming codes using the same iterative low-complex hard-decision algorithm as in previous works of V. Zyablov and M. Pinsker in 1975 and V. Zyablov, R. Johannesson and M. Loncar in 2009. The number of decoding iterations, required to correct the errors, is a logarithmic function of the code length. The fraction of guaranteed correctable errors computed numerically for various choices of LDPC code parameters with constituent SPC and Hamming codes shows that proposed lower bound gives the better results than previously known best lower bounds obtained by V. Zyablov and M. Pinsker in 1975 for Gallager's LDPC codes and A. Barg and A. Mazumrad for Hamming code-based LDPC (H-LDPC) codes in 2011. Some of obtained numerical results are represented at the end of the paper to demonstrate these improvements.

On the asymptotic performance of low-complexity decoded LDPC codes with constituent hamming codes

Victor Zyablov, Maja Lončar, Rolf Johannesson +1 more

Hamming code-based LDPC (H-LDPC) block codes are obtained by replacing single parity-check codes in Gallager’s LDPC codes with Hamming constituent codes. This paper investigates the asymptotic error-correcting capabilities of ensembles of random H-LDPC codes, used over the binary symmetric channel and decoded with a low-complexity hard-decision iterative decoding algorithm. The number of required decoding iterations is a logarithmic function of the code length. It is shown that there exist H-LDPC codes for which such an iterative decoding corrects any error pattern with a number of errors that grows linearly with the code length. For various choices of code parameters the results are supported by numerical examples.

On the erasure-correcting capabilities of low-complexity decoded LDPC codes with constituent Hamming codes

Victor Zyablov, Maja Lončar, Rolf Johannesson +1 more

Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes can be constructed using constituent block codes other than single parity-check (SPC) codes. This paper considers random LDPC codes with constituent Hamming codes and investigates their asymptotic performance over the binary erasure channel. It is shown that there exist Hamming code-based LDPC codes which, when decoded with a low-complexity iterative algorithm, are capable of correcting any erasure pattern with a number of erasures that grows linearly with the code length. The number of decoding iterations, required to correct the erasures, is a logarithmic function of the code length. The fraction of correctable erasures is computed numerically for various choices of code parameters.

Hybrid Hard-Decision Iterative Decoding of Irregular Low-Density Parity-Check Codes

Pirouz Zarrinkhat, Amir H. Banihashemi

Time-invariant hybrid (HscrTI) decoding of irregular low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes is studied. Focusing on HscrTIalgorithms with majority-based (MB) binary message-passing constituents, we use density evolution (DE) and finite-length simulation to analyze the performance and the convergence properties of these algorithms over (memoryless) binary symmetric channels. To apply DE, we generalize degree distributions to have the irregularity of both the code and the decoding algorithm embedded in them. A tight upper bound on the threshold of MB HscrTIalgorithms is derived, and it is proven that the asymptotic error probability for these algorithms tends to zero, at least exponentially, with the number of iterations. We devise optimal MB HscrTIalgorithms for irregular LDPC codes, and show that these algorithms outperform Gallager's algorithm A applied to optimized irregular LDPC codes. We also show that compared to switch-type algorithms, such as Gallager's algorithm B, where a comparable improvement is obtained by switching between different MB algorithms, MB HscrTIalgorithms are more robust and can better cope with unknown channel conditions, and thus can be practically more attractive.
