Abstract

In this paper, an iterative demodulation/decoding scheme is proposed for coded modulation systems based on low density parity check (LDPC) codes of short block lengths. Here, the LDPC code is decoded by a soft-input soft-output ordered-statistic (SISO-OSD) decoder. The soft-output of the SISO-OSD is used as the a priori probabilities of the demodulator for the next iteration. Simulation results show that the error performance of the iterative demodulation/decoding ordered-statistic decoder is superior to that of the iterative demodulation/decoding sum-product decoder. The performance of the proposed system closely approaches the union bound of the maximum likelihood (ML) decoding with Gray mapping
