Low-Complexity Neural Belief Propagation Algorithm for LDPC Decoding
Haojia Zhang, Shuai Han, Hao Chen · 2025
With the rapid development of deep learning research and physical layer communication applications, deep learning-based channel coding has gradually become a research hotspot. In this paper, we propose a LDPC decoding network based on neural belief propagation (NBP) decoding. By introducing weights sharing mechanism, the weights vary across different iterations. The number of parameters is reduced, which significantly lowers memory requirements. In addition, we optimize the loss function to better train the model, achieving a lower bit error rate (BER) performance. Experimental results show that the proposed decoder yields significant performance improvements with respect to NBP, and significantly reducing the number of learnable weights.
