Large Girth Non-Binary LDPC Codes Based on Finite Fields and Euclidean Geometries
Xueqin Jiang, Moon Ho Lee · IEEE Signal Processing Letters · 2009
This letter presents an approach to the construction of non-binary low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes based on alpha-multiplied circulant permutation matrices and hyperplanes of two different dimensions in Euclidean geometries. Codes constructed by this method have large girth and high binary column weight when the order of Galois field is high. Simulation results show that these codes perform very well with fast Fourier transform (FFT) based sum-product algorithm (SPA).
