Low Density Parity- Check (LDPC) codes are a class of linear block codes which provide good error detection and error correction capabilities and are capable of achieving near Shannon- limit channel communication. Hence, they are included as error correction codes in many modern communication system standards like Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB-S2), Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) and WiMax. In this book, we bring together several of approaches for construction of LDPC codes and we examine them from structural point of view. We have designed a simulation tool for the performance evaluation of...
