Abstract
High-rate irregular Generalized LDPC (GLDPC) codes with low-complexity constituent codes are studied. The main area of focus is the optimization of the underlying irregular binary LDPC codes and their matching with constituent codes. Finite length random coding bound on the maximum-likelihood decoding error probability of a random ensemble of irregular GLDPC codes is derived and compared with a similar bound for non-binary (NB) LDPC codes over small alphabets.A new algorithm for assigning columns of the parity-check matrix of a constituent code to nonzero elements of a base matrix of the quasi-cyclic (QC)-GLDPC code is presented. Examples of the constructed QC-GLDPC codes are given. The simulation results for frame error rate (FER) performance of the belief-propagation (BP) decoding for the QC-GLDPC codes are presented and compared with the same performance of NB QC-LDPC codes over small alphabets and binary LDPC codes in the WiFi and 5G standards.Both GLDPC codes and NB LDPC codes with sufficiently low decoding complexity are shown to outperform their binary LDPC counterparts, while GLDPC codes appear to be more advantageous in terms of decoding complexity.
