一种新的终止LDPC迭代译码算法

在传统的卫星广播系统中,信道纠错通常采用BCH码级联LDPC码的方案以达到良好的误码率性能,例如DVB-S2系统。作为内码的LDPC码通常采用迭代译码,且迭代次数较高才能实现比较好的系统性能。借助BCH级联LDPC的结构,文中提出了将BCH检错嵌套进LDPC每一次迭代译码过程中的新的迭代译码结构。仿真结果表明,新算法以较低的BCH码检错运算复杂度换取了LDPC码迭代次数的明显下降,从而极大降低了迭代译码总体复杂度和译码时延,且整体纠错性能与原始LDPC译码后BCH纠错的算法相比基本保持不变。

Early Termination of BCH Codes Aided Iterative Decoding Algorithm for LDPC

In conventional satellite broadcasting systems,e.g.DVB-S2,the error-correction schemes are often based on the concatenation of BCH and low-density parity-check(LDPC) codes,so as to obtain excellent bit error rate(BER) performance.As the inner codes,LDPC codes are traditionally decoded by iterative algorithms with many iteration cycles.In virtue of the concatenated structure of BCH and LDPC codes,a novel iterative decoding structure involving the embedment of BCH error-check function into each iterative cycl...
