Construction of Reed-Solomon Based Quasi-Cyclic LDPC Codes Based on Protograph
Inseon Kim, Hong‐Yeop Song · 2018
In this paper, we propose construction of Reed-Solomon(RS) based Quasi-Cyclic Low-Density Parity-Check(QC-LDPC) codes using protograph combining two existing QC-LDPC codes construction. One is the construction RS based QC-LDPC codes whose girth is at least 8 and another is protograph based QC-LDPC codes to increase the upper bounds of minimum Hamming distance. We construct the protographs to increase the upper bound of minimum Hamming distance for Proto-RS-QC-LDPC codes and simulate some experiment to show coding gain in sense of BER compare to existing QC-LDPC codes.
