Abstract
The problem of improving the performance of min-sum decoding of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes is considered in this paper. Based on min-sum algorithm, a novel modified min-sum decoding algorithm for LDPC codes is proposed. The proposed algorithm modifies the variable node message in the iteration process by averaging the new message and previous message if their signs are different. Compared with the standard min-sum algorithm, the modification is achieved with only a small increase in complexity, but significantly improves decoding performance for both regular and irregular LDPC codes. Simulation results show that the performance of our modified decoding algorithm is very close to that of the standard sum-product algorithm for moderate length LDPC codes.
