Performance Analysis of Normalized Min-Sum Decoder for LDPC using non-uniform Quantization
K Pargunarajan, R Gandhiraj, Madaswamy Jayakumar · 2025
Very high data rates and decoding computational complexity place strict constraints in 5G and 6G communications. In this paper, non-uniform Quantized Decoding algorithm is proposed for Low-density Parity Check codes (LDPC). In the proposed algorithm, the check node updating process is carried out using quantization, which reduces complexity. The Sum Product Algorithm (SPA) is iterative message passing decoding techniques offer the optimal performance for LDPC codes. Implementations use message-passing decoding with more precision, results extremely high complexity. In Iterative, message-passing (MP), trapping sets and absorbing sets causes low error floor. In this article non-uniform quantization proposed to overcome dynamic range of values over uniform quantization. Simulation results provide coding gain increases closer to of 0.5 dB in higher SNR and has good error floor at 10−5.
