Abstract

This paper analyzed the Belief-Propagation decoding algorithm for Low-Density Parity Check Codes and researched the convergence characteristic of this algorithm,and then proposed a modified Belief-Propagation decoding algorithm aiming at decreasing the number of iteration.Simulation result shows that the number of iteration of the proposed algorithm is only one-third of the standard one at expense of little loss in performance.

A hybrid belief propagation decoding algorithms of LDPC codes for fast convergence

Tso-Cho Chen, Chia‐Jung Li, Erl‐Huei Lu

A hybrid belief propagation (BP) decoding algorithm for low-density parity-check code is proposed to accelerate the convergence of decoding and reduce the number of decoding iterations. The hybrid scheme is presented by integrating the BP algorithm with the bit-flipping function which is used as adaptive weighted factor in the BP iteration decoding. The adaptive weighting factor is based on the average weighted reliability measure of the hard output of decoder. The proposed hybrid adaptive weighted iteration scheme can efficiently increase the convergence speed of the belief propagation decoding and therefore improve the error performance. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can significantly reduce the decoding complexity and achieve better error performances as compared with the sum-product algorithm.

A Weighted Belief Propagation Decoding Algorithm of LDPC Codes for Fast Convergence and Early Stopping

Tso-Cho Chen

A weighted belief propagation decoding algorithm for low-density parity-check decoding is proposed to accelerate the convergence of decoding and reduce the number of decoding iterations. We propose an early stopping criterion which is based on the average weighted reliability measure of the hard output of decoder to detect undecodable blocks in an early stage of the decoding process. In addition, an adaptive weighted iteration scheme is proposed to increase the convergence speed of belief propagation (BP) decoding and therefore improve the error performance. The evolution of the adaptive weighting factor with the number of decoding iterations is based on the relative entropy between two consecutive ”a posteriori” probabilities distribution at decoder output. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve about 0.2-0.4 dB coding gain improvement on average while reducing up to about 50%-85% iterations for decoding at low to medium E(subscript b)/ N(subscript 0) , compared with the conventional BP based algorithms.

A Modified belief propagation decoding algorithm for low-density parity-check codes based on oscillating iteration

Bao Jian-rong

According to no-convergence of falsely oscillating iteration in the low-density parity-check(LDPC) decoding at the range from medium to high SNRs(Signal to Noise Ratios),we propose a modified LDPC belief propagation(BP) decoding algorithm,i.e.soft value zero-forcing BP algorithm.By setting extrinsic information of the oscillating iteration bit nodes into zero,the impact on the iteratively decoding from false channel information is greatly reduced.And it also improves the performance of the decoding algorithm.Furthermore,a decision criterion of oscillating iteration nodes is presented to increase the accuracy of the decision.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has better decoding performance than that of the BP algorithm with the same iterations at medium and high SNRs.

Improved belief propagation algorithm for decoding of convolutional LDPC codes

Chen Ru-wei

A novel belief propagation(BP) decoding algorithm for convolutional low-density parity-check codes is proposed.The proposed algorithm raises the efficiency of updating the variable information by applying feedback information at each decoding iteration and employs the weighting factor to reduce the error propagation caused by the cycles in the Tanner graph,thus yielding a faster convergence of the decoding.Simulation results show that an error performance better than that of the existing belief propagation algorithm can be achieved,while the 5/8 decoding delay and the computation complexity are effectively reduced.Compared with the existing BP,the proposed algorithm achieves a gain of 0.16dB at the BER of 10-6 with the same number of iterations.

Fast decoding of low density parity check codes

Nassib Laouini, Larbi Ben Hadj Slama, Ammar Bouallègue

The Layered Belief Propagation L-BP algorithm is is a modified Belief Propagation BP algorithm, where the check nodes are divided in subgroups called layers and each iteration is broken into multiple sub-iterations. In this paper, we consider layered belief propagation decoding and propose an efficient variable node layering for decoding LDPC codes that performs well. We compare the performance of the first introduced LDPC decoding algorithm BP and Layered BP using check node layering with Layered BP using variable node layering in terms of bit error rate (BER). We show that the convergence for decoding LDPC codes is increasing by using a simple and efficient layering strategy.
