Density evolution for two improved BP-Based decoding algorithms of LDPC codes
J. Chen, M.P.C. Fossorier · IEEE Communications Letters · 2002
In this letter, we analyze the performance of two improved belief propagation (BP) based decoding algorithms for LDPC codes, namely the normalized BP-based and the offset BP-based algorithms, by means of density evolution. The numerical calculations show that with one properly chosen parameter for each of these two improved BP-based algorithms, performances very close to that of the BP algorithm can be achieved. Simulation results for LDPC codes with code length moderately long validate the proposed optimization.
