Today, the exponentially emergent requirements for high performance communication systems operating in noisy environments arise the need of high data rate with error free communication. Due to this reason, design of channel encoders becomes critical and a performance metric is required to qualify encoder for optimized solution. In this paper, we present two encoding techniques i.e. Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) and Turbo encoder. These techniques are evaluated on the basis of FPGA resource utilization and power consumption. Post PAR simulation results show that Low Density Parity Check encoder is more efficient in terms of through put, resource utilization and power consumption than Turbo encoder.
