Abstract
Genetic algorithms are successfully used for decoding some classes of error correcting codes, and offer very good performances for solving large optimization problems. This article proposes a new decoder based on Serial Genetic Algorithm Decoder (SGAD) for decoding Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes. The results show that the proposed algorithm gives large gains over sum-product decoder, which proves its efficiency.

Summary
The current large development and deployment of wireless and digital communication encourage the research activities in the domain of error correcting codes. The latter is used to improve the reliability of data transmitted over communication channels susceptible to noise. Hard decision algorithms work on a binary form of the received information. Soft decision algorithms work directly on the received symbols [1]. Soft-decision decoding is a NP-hard problem and has been approached in different ways. The decoding of linear block codes uses algorithm A* [2], genetic algorithms [1] [3] and neural networks [4].
