Abstract

Taking advantages of the property of classical codes from balance incomplete block designs (BIBDs), an improved construction of quantum Low Density Parity Check (quantum LDPC) codes is proposed in this paper. In the construction, we modified the original "Construction B" procedures to assure the quantum parity check matrix commutativity. It is shown that this construction method is a systematic structured method, and it is easier to obtain quantum codes. By simulation, we find the quantum parity check matrix obtained by our method are sparser than those from the method proposed by Ivan, and the codes have more good performance with the belief propagation iterative decoding algorithms.

Construction of low density parity check codes: a combinatoric design approach

Bassem Ammar, B. Honary, Y. Kou +1 more

This paper presents a method for constructing low density parity check (LDPC) codes based on a special type of combinatoric designs, known as the balanced incomplete block designs (BIBDs). Several classes of BIBDs suitable for constructing LDPC codes are presented. Codes constructed based on these classes of BIBDs perform well with iterative decoding.

Construction of irregular LDPC codes based on Balanced Incomplete Block Designs

Siddarama R. Patil, Sant Saran Pathak

In this paper, we present a method to design irregular structured low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes based on balanced incomplete block designs (BIBD). The problem of designing irregular structured LDPC codes that have good overall error performance for a wide range of code rates and block sizes with attractive storage requirements is attempted. The proposed codes are well structured and unlike random codes can lend themselves to a very low-complexity implementation. The codes constructed by this method have the girth at least 6 and they perform well with the sum-product iterative decoding algorithm. Furthermore, the codes are compared with known random LDPC codes, in order to assess their relative achievable performance. The proposed LDPC codes demonstrate performance that is better than an average random LDPC code of similar block length, code rate and parity check matrix sparsity.

Yanhu Shan

A method to construct a flexible length or rate of quasi-cyclic Low Density Parity Check(LDPC) codes based on Balanced Incomplete Block Design(BIBD) and cycle permutation matrix is proposed.Based on actual demand,the corresponding template matrix is constructed by BIBD method.The template matrix is extended by the appropriate cycle permutation matrix.The quasi-cyclic LDPC codes constructed by the proposed method have a good structure and flexibility.This method improves the efficiency of construction good codes which meet the needs of a practical application.Simulations show that quasi-cyclic LDPC codes constructed by the proposed method perform well over AWGN channels with iterative decoding and have a lower error floor.

Construction of Nonbinary LDPC Codes Based on BIBD Circulant Permutation Matrices

The algebraic method for constructing nonbinary quasi-cyclic(QC) low-density parity-check(LDPC) codes based on balanced incomplete block designs(BIBD) is presented.The generalized nonbinary location vector is proposed on constructions.A nonbinary matrix,which consists of nonbinary circulant submatrices,is formed by generalized two-dimensional matrix dispersion considering the generalized nonbinary location vector and BIBD method.The codes constructed by this method have girths at least 6.Experimental results show that significant coding gains are achieved over Reed-Solomon codes of the same parameters under the Additive White Gaussian Noise(AWGN) channel with iterative decoding Fast Fourier Transform based q-ary Sum-Product Algorithm(FFT-QSPA).And a good performance is also achieved over nonbinary Mackay LDPC codes with almost the same conditions.

This correspondence presents a method for constructing structured regular low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes based on a special type of combinatoric designs, known as balance incomplete block designs. Codes constructed by this method have girths at least 6 and they perform well with iterative decoding. Furthermore, several classes of these codes are quasi-cyclic and hence their encoding can be implemented with simple feedback shift registers.

Construction of well-structured quasi-cyclic low-density parity check codes

B. Honary, Abdolhosein Moinian, Bassem Ammar

Two classes of well-structured binary low-density parity check codes (LDPC) are described. The first class is based on a branch of combinatorial mathematics, known as the balanced incomplete block design (BIBD). Construction of three types of codes derived from BIBD designs is illustrated in addition to a family of LDPC codes constructed by decomposition of incidence matrices of the proposed BIBD designs. The decomposition technique reduces the density of the parity check matrix and hence reduces the number of short cycles, which generally lead to better performing LDPC codes. The second class of well-structured LDPC codes, Vandermonde or array LDPC codes, are defined by a small number of parameters and cover a large set of code lengths and rates with different column weights. The presented LDPC codes are quasi-cyclic with no cycles of length four; hence simple encoding while maintaining good performance is achieved. Furthermore, the codes are compared with known random LDPC codes, in order to assess their relative achievable performance/complexity trade-offs. It is shown that well-structured LDPC codes perform very similar to the known random LDPC codes.
