Abstract

In this letter, a global design of double protograph low-density parity-check (DP-LDPC) codes is proposed for joint source-channel coding (JSCC) system. The maximum number of degree-2 variable nodes (VNs), which is very important for the performance of the system, is determined from a global perspective that considers the joint protograph as a whole. Based on the allocation of degree-2 VNs, the new guidelines with this more comprehensive perspective are summarized and the global optimized DP-LDPC codes are designed. The simulation results that are in consistent with the joint protograph extrinsic information transfer (P-EXIT) analysis indicate that the optimized DP-LDPC codes have better performance compared with the existing re-designed DP-LDPC codes.
