An Improved Bit-flipping Decoding Algorithm for Low-density Parity-check Codes

Abstract

An improved bit-flipping decoding algorithm is proposed for low-density parity-check(LDPC) codes in this paper.Two influences on error probabilities of code bits are considered: the influence of the number of code bits included in an unsatisfied check,and the influence of the number of unsatisfied checks of each code bit.No soft information is required for decoding.Simulation results show that improvement on performance is observed for the proposed algorithm,and it provides better performance over several soft-decision bit-flipping decoding algorithms for LDPC codes with large girth.

This paper proposes a modified weighted violation-based bit-flipping decoding algorithm for LDPC codes, and no soft information is required for decoding, Futhermore, in order to reduce the average number of iterations and decoding complexity, the threshold of judgement is set. Simulation results show that this modified algorithm could achieve much less number of iterations and better performance as compared with several soft-decision bit-flipping decoding algorithms for LDPC codes with large girth and low code rate.

Improved Bit-Flipping Decoding of Low-Density Parity-Check Codes

N. Miladinovic, M.P.C. Fossorier

In this correspondence, a new method for improving hard-decision bit-flipping decoding of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes is presented. Bits with a number of unsatisfied check sums larger than a predetermined threshold are flipped with a probability p /spl les/ 1 which is independent of the code considered. The probability p is incremented during decoding according to some rule. With a proper choice of the initial p, the proposed improved bit-flipping (BF) algorithm achieves gain not only in performance, but also in average decoding time for signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values of interest with respect to p = 1.

A new method for improving bit flipping decoding of LDPC codes is presented. In this method, bits with a number of unsatisfied check sums larger than a predetermined threshold are flipped with a probability p which is determined based on the code considered. With a proper choice of p, the proposed improved bit flipping algorithm achieves a gain not only in performance, but also in the average decoding time for SNR values of interest with respect to p=1.

Improved Bit-Flipping Method for Decoding Structured Low-Density Parity-Check Codes

Meiling Zhang

An improved bit-flipping(BF) algorithm with low complexity for decoding structured low-density parity-check codes(LDPC) is proposed to improve the performance of the hard-decision BF algorithm.The hard-decision bits are divided into two groups based on the magnitudes of the received symbols,and at each iteration,the proposed algorithm can flip more than one bit with using two thresholds,and the flipping error probability is effectively decreased.The improved BF algorithm requires some real number comparisons before iterations and requires only logical operations during the iterations.Compared with the weighted bit-flipping algorithm and its modifications,the new method is with significantly lower complexity.Simulations show that the proposed algorithm is provided with very fast convergence speed and excellent performance with significantly low complexity.

Weighted candidate bit based bit-flipping decoding algorithms for LDPC codes

Zhu Qing, Lenan Wu

In order to improve the bit-flipping (BF) decoding algorithms, a weighted hard-decision based BF decoding algorithm for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes is presented, in which the weights of variable-nodes are employed. A new metric is defined for the weight of candidate bits not only in unsatisfied parity check equations but also in satisfied ones. The connection between min-sum decoding algorithm and the proposed algorithm is presented. Simulation results show that the new decoding algorithm can provide better FER performance and faster convergence speed than the original candidate bit based bit-flipping (CBBF) algorithm.

A novel hard-decision decoding algorithm for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes is proposed in this paper. This algorithm employs the correlation information among the column vectors of the parity-check matrix and syndrome vector for decoding. It does not require soft information, and has low decoding complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed decoding algorithm could provide an effective tradeoff between error performance and decoding complexity.
