On the Asymptotic Weight and Stopping Set Distribution of Regular LDPC Ensembles
V. Rathi · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 2006
In this correspondence, we estimate the variance of weight and stopping set distribution of regular low-density parity-check (LDPC) ensembles. Using this estimate and the second moment method we obtain bounds on the probability that a randomly chosen code from regular LDPC ensemble has its weight distribution and stopping set distribution close to respective ensemble averages. We are able to show that a large fraction of total number of codes have their weight and stopping set distribution close to the average
