MULTI-DIMENSIONAL QUASI-CYCLIC (QC) LOW-DENSITY PARITY-CHECK (LDPC) CODE CONSTRUCTIONS

摘要

The disclosure relates in some aspects to multi-dimensional quasi-cyclic (QC) low-density parity-check (LDPC) code generation. In one example, a controller of a data storage apparatus determines a plurality of dimensions for a code, the plurality of dimensions comprising a plurality of coprime numbers, generates distinct circulant rotation values based on at least a root of unity number and a prime number, assigns a different one of the distinct circulant rotation values to each of a plurality of circulant locations defined within the plurality of dimensions to generate the code, and encodes data using the code.
