Non-binary LDPC decoding using truncated messages in the Walsh-Hadamard domain
Jossy Sayir · Apollo (University of Cambridge) · 2014
The Extended Min-Sum (EMS) algorithm for non-binary low-density parity-check (LDPC) defined over an alphabet of size $q$ operates on truncated messages of length $q'$ to achieve a complexity of the order $q'^2$. In contrast, Walsh-Hadamard (WH) transform based iterative decoders achieve a complexity of the order $q\log q$, which is much larger for $q'<
