Hard-Decision Bit-Flipping Decoder Based on Adaptive Bit-Local Threshold for LDPC Codes
Yuanhua Liu, Meiling Zhang · IEEE Communications Letters · 2019
This letter presents two novel adaptive bit-local threshold bit-flipping algorithms for improving the hard-decision decoding performance of LDPC codes. The threshold of each bit can be changed adaptively to maximize the number of corrected errors during the iterations. The proposed methods require only logical operations during decoding and can be realized easily by hardware. Compared with the existing adaptive threshold BF algorithm, the proposed algorithms achieve better performance while removing the need for the delay-inducing global maximum operations, thus facilitating high-throughput decoding.
