Low-density parity-check codes have been known to exhibit good error correcting performance by using with the belief propagation (BP) decoding. The group shuffled BP decoding, which is a modification of the BP decoding, can exhibit a better performance than BP decoding by suitably grouping variable nodes in a Tanner graph. In this letter, we propose a new grouping of variable nodes based on local girths and evaluate its performance.
