LI Miao-miao
Abstract
Based on the lines and points in finite geometry,a method to construct the low density parity check codes is discussed in this paper.According to the characteristics of these codes,the dual codes of this kind of LDPC codes are obtained by splitting the rows or columns of the check matrix.A novel construction method of quantum low-density-parity-check code is developed according to the theory of quantum CSS codes.Quantum code(15,4) is selected as an example to illustrate the availability of this construction method,and its performance is analyzed under the bit-flipping channel.It is shown that this method is easier to construct the dual codes,and the performance of quantum codes constructed is superior to that of classical ones.
