Efficient decoder design for high-throughput LDPC decoding

摘要

In this paper, a matrix permutation scheme is proposed to convert a generic QC-LDPC code to a shift-structured LDPC code. Thus, efficient VLSI architectures can be developed to achieve very high decoding throughput with low hardware complexity. Furthermore, novel implementation schemes for min-sum algorithm based column-layered decoding are presented. The proposed approaches provide very efficient ways for high-speed decoder design of generic QC-LDPC codes.
