Low density parity checking codes (LDPC) are one of the most important issues in coding theory at present. LDPC-code are a type of linear-block LDPC-codes. Channel coding might be considered as the finest conversant and most potent components of cellular communications systems, that was employed for transmitting errors corrections imposed by noise, fading and interfering. LDPC-codes are advanced coding gain, i.e., new area in coding. the performances of LDPC-code are similar to the Shannon-limiting, this led to the usage of decoding in several applications in digital communications systems, like DVB-S2 and WLAN802.1..This paper aims to know what is LDPC,what its application and introduce encoding algorithms that gives rise to a linear encoding time and also show that the regular and irregular LDPC performance and also introduce different methods for decoding LDPC. I discuss in detail LDPC decoding algorithm: bit flipping algorithm, as a type from hard decision .belief propagation algorithm, sum product algorithm and minimum sum algorithm as examples from soft decision .I expect that at least some students or researchers involved in researching LDPC codes would find this paper helpful.

Low-density parity-check codes

Sarah J. Johnson

Introduction In this chapter we introduce low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, a class of error correction codes proposed by Gallager in his 1962 PhD thesis 12 years after error correction codes were first introduced by Hamming (published in 1950). Both Hamming codes and LDPC codes are block codes: the messages are broken up into blocks to be encoded at the transmitter and similarly decoded as separate blocks at the receiver. While Hamming codes are short and very structured with a known, fixed, error correction ability, LDPC codes are the opposite, usually long and often constructed pseudo-randomly with only a probabilistic notion of their expected error correction performance. The chapter begins by presenting parity bits as a means to detect and, when more than one is employed, to correct errors in digital data. Block error correction codes are described as a linear combination of parity-check equations and thus defined by their parity-check matrix representation. The graphical representation of codes by Tanner graphs is presented and the necessary graph theoretic concepts introduced. In Section 2.4 iterative decoding algorithms are introduced using a hard decision algorithm (bit flipping), so that the topic is developed first without reference to probability theory. Subsequently the sum–product decoding algorithm is presented. This chapter serves as a self-contained introduction to LDPC codes and their decoding. It is intended that the material presented here will enable the reader to implement LDPC encoders and iterative decoders.

Linear programming decoding: The ultimate decoding technique for low density parity check codes

Mohammad Rakibul Islam

Linear programming (LP) decoding is an alternative to iterative algorithms for decoding low density parity check (LDPC) codes. Although the practical performance of LP decoding is comparable to message-passing decoding, a significant advantage is its relative amenability to nonasymptotic analysis. Moreover, there turn out to be a number of important theoretical connections between the LP decoding and standard forms of iterative decoding. These connections allow theoretical insight from the LP decoding perspective to be transferred to iterative decoding algorithms. These advantages encouraged many researchers to work in this recent decoding technique for LDPC codes. In this paper, LP decoding for LDPC code is extensively reviewed and is discussed in different segmented areas.

Performance Evaluation of LDPC decoding Algorithm for GF (2)

D Patel Jigisha, Patel Ruchita Kumari

Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes are one of the block coding techniques that can approach the Shannon’s limit within a fraction of a decibel for high block lengths. In many digital communication systems, these codes have strong competitors of turbo codes for error control. LDPC codes performance depends on the excellent design of parity check matrix and many diverse research methods have been used by different study groups to evaluate the performance. Unlike many other classes of codes, LDPC codes are already equipped with a fast, probabilistic decoding algorithm. This makes LDPC codes not only attractive from a theoretical point of view, but also very suitable for practical applications. This paper throws hard decision and soft decision algorithm of LDPC. The hard decision algorithm contains Bit flipping algorithm and Soft decoding algorithm contains Sum product algorithm which is used to correct burst error. Sum Product algorithm is also called as belief propagation. Bit flipping and Sum Product algorithms are explained and can be implemented for the generated parity check matrix of (1016x508) for LDPC code with code rate 1/2.

Low density parity check (LDPC) code is a kind of linear block code with excellent performance which is proposed by Dr. Gallager. It overcomes the shortcomings of other error correcting codes and it is the nearest channel code from Shannon limit at the present discover. The decoding algorithms of L DPC code can reduce the decoding delay by the parallel decoding structure, so this has caused great concern in many fields. In recent years more and more scholars begin to study LDPC code, this makes the coding and decoding algorithms of LDPC code improved continuously. LDPC code has been widely used in many fields such as optical fiber communication, digital watermarking, underwater communication and deep space communication because of its excellent performance. Non-binary LDPC code has better performance compared with binary LDPC code. In this paper, FFT-BP decoding algorithm of non-binary LDPC code is studied, and on this basis, we proposed an improved FFT-BP algorithm. The improved decoding algorithm can effectively reduce the average iteration number. Finally, we achieved encode and decode algorithm of non-binary LDPC code with FPGA.
