Two-bit bit-flipping algorithm for decoding low-density parity-check codes based on syndrome weight

Abstract

In this paper, a novel two-bit bit-flipping (BF) decoding algorithm is proposed for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. The proposed algorithm flips two bits per iteration based on the syndrome-weight metric. Since the algorithm requires only logical operations during the iterations. The proposed tow-bit BF algorithm has low complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has faster convergence speed and about 0.2 dB gain compared to standard BF decoding algorithm.

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.

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

Yuan Hua Liu, Mei Ling Zhang

A novel bit-flipping (BF) algorithm with low complexity for high-throughput decoding of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes is presented. At each iteration, a novel threshold pattern is used to determine the code bits whether to be flipped or not, and the flipping error probability is effectively decreased. Compared with the weighted BF algorithm and its modifications, the modified BF algorithm has significantly lower complexity and decoding time. Through simulations the proposed BF algorithm is shown to achieve excellent performance and fast convergence speed while maintaining significantly low complexity thus facilitating high-throughput decoding.

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 Improved Decoding Algorithm for Low-Density Parity-Check Codes

Based on decoding performance, complexity and latency of finite-geometry low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, an efficient decoding algorithm is proposed. The algorithm is a hybrid bit-flipping (BF)/majority-logic (MLG) algorithm. In the algorithm, there are two stages. At the first stage, a code is decoded with bit-flipping (BF) with a small fixed number of iterations. Then the output from bit-flipping (BF) decoder is decoded by majority-logic (MLG) decoding. And in bit-flipping (BF) decoding, a new method is used to find the least reliable position. In the hybrid algorithm, there aren't real operations. Simulation results show that the algorithm provides 0.3dB coding gain over weight bit-flipping (WBF) decoding, and within 1 dB away from sum-product algorithm (SPA) decoding.

Multi-Threshold Bit Flipping Algorithm for Decoding Structured LDPC Codes

A novel bit-flipping (BF) decoding algorithm is proposed for structured low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. The proposed BF algorithm which is called multi-threshold bit-flipping (MTBF) algorithm, flips multiple bits by using multiple thresholds at each iteration. It only requires some real operations before iterations and requires only logical operations during the iterations. The MTBF algorithm has lower complexity than the weighted bit-flipping algorithm and its modifications. Simulations show that the proposed algorithm has fast convergence speed and good performance.
