And the novel class of LDPC codes was applied in a coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. This method extended the class of LDPC codes which could be constructed from shifted identity matrices. The method could avoid short cycles in Tanner graphs with simple inequation in the construction of shifting identity matrices, which made the girth of Tanner graphs 8. Because of the quasicyclic structure and the inherent block configuration of parity-check matrices, the encoders and the decoders were practically feasible. They were linear-time encodable and decodable. The LDPC codes proposed had various code rates, ranging from low to high. They performed excellently with iterative decoding and demonstrate better performance than other regular LDPC codes in OFDM systems.展开更多

It investigates the structure of the sparse parity-check matrix defined by Gallager. It is discovered that the problem of constructing the sparse parity-check matrix requires an algorithm that is efficient in search environments and also is able to work with constraint satisfaction problem. The definition of Q-matrix is given, and it is found that the queen algorithm enables to search the Q-matrix. With properly permuting Q-matrix as sub-matrix, the sparse parity-check matrix which satisfied constraint condition is created, and the good regular-LDPC code that is called the Q-matrix LDPC code is generated. The result of this paper is significant not only for designing low complexity encoder, improving performance and reducing complexity of iterative decoding arithmetic, but also for building practical system of encodable and decodable LDPC code.展开更多

A weighted measure is introduced for each check-sum of the parity-check matrix and a scaling factor is used to weaken the overestimation of extrinsic information. Furthermore, the updating process of the reliability measure takes advantage of turbo-like iterative decoding strategy. The main computational complexity of the proposed algorithm only includes logical and integer operations with the bit uniform quantization criterion. Simulation results show that the novel decoding algorithm can achieve excellent error-correction performance and a fast decoding convergence speed.展开更多
