Abstract

In this paper, a modified weighted bit-flipping (WBF) algorithm is proposed for finite geometry Low-Density Parity-Check (FG-LDPC) codes. The calculation for the flipping function in the new method includes all the elements in sum product algorithm (SPA) instead of the minimum one in most existing methods. Simulation results show that the proposed method exhibits better performance than the best method available in the literature so far. The performances of different algorithms are also considered in random constructed LDPC codes. The reliability ratio based WBF (RRWBF) method performs the best in this kind of codes and the proposed method performs very closely to the RRWBF method. The decoding complexities for both FG-LDPC and random constructed LDPC are also analyzed.
