Abstract

See full text

A method to decode low-density parity check (LDPC) encoded data using a parity check matrix having a plurality of layers, includes receiving a plurality of values at a decoder. Each value of the plurality of values represents one of a plurality of bits of an LDPC codeword encoded using the parity check matrix. The LDPC codeword is decoded using layered scheduling. A functional adjustment is applied to an approximation of belief propagation used during the decoding. At least one layer specific functional adjustment is used to provide an estimate of the codeword. An apparatus to decode low-density parity check (LDPC) encoded data using a parity check matrix having a plurality of layers includes a decoder. The decoder includes circuitry to decode, layer by layer, the LDPC encoded data utilizing functional adjustments and an algorithmic approximation to belief propagation to provide an estimate of the LDPC codeword. The functional adjustments include layer specific parameters for at least two layers of the parity check matrix associated with the codeword.
