Abstract

An approach is provided for encoding a source signal based on a structured parity check matrix of a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) code. The LDPC code is represented by stored information reflecting a tabular format of rows and columns, wherein each row represents occurrences of one values within a respective column of the parity check matrix, and wherein the columns of the parity check matrix are derived according to an operation based on the respective rows of the stored information. Blocks of information bits of the source signal are encoded based on the LDPC code to generate an encoded signal. Row indices of 1's in a column index of the parity check matrix are given at a respective row according to the stored information. The LDPC code is of a structure that facilitates use of a plurality of parallel engines for decoding the encoded signal.

Claims (6919)

1. A method comprising:

accessing, by a processor of a device, stored information representing a predetermined structured parity check matrix of a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) code, wherein the stored information reflects a tabular format of rows and columns, wherein each row represents occurrences of one values within a respective column of the parity check matrix, and wherein the columns of the parity check matrix are derived according to a predetermined operation based on the respective rows of the stored tabular information; and

encoding one or more blocks of information bits of a source signal based on the LDPC code to generate an LDPC encoded signal;

wherein the LDPC encoding of the blocks of information bits (each block being of a size of k ldpc information bits, and each resulting encoded block being of a size of n ldpc code bits including parity bits p i , i=0, 1, 2, . . . , n ldpc −k ldpc −1), comprises:

initializing parity bit accumulators a 0 =a 1 = . . . =a n ldpc −k ldpc −1 =0;

for a one of the blocks of information bits, divided into j sequential groups (each of a size of M information bits), and for j=1, 2, 3, . . . k ldpc /M: (1) accumulating a first information bit of a j th group in certain of the parity bit accumulators reflected by accumulator addresses based on a j th row of the stored tabular information; and (2) accumulating the remaining (M−1) information bits of the j th group in certain of the parity bit accumulators reflected by accumulator addresses according to {x+m mod M*q} mod(n ldpc −k ldpc ), wherein x denotes an address of the parity bit accumulator corresponding to the first bit of the group, and q=(n ldpc −k ldpc )/M; and

after all of the information bits of the one block are accumulated, sequentially performing operations (with respect to the parity bit accumulators) according to a i =a i ⊕a i-1 , i=1, 2, . . . (n ldpc −k ldpc −1), where the additions are in Galois Field (GF) 2; and

wherein the parity bits p i , i=0, 1, . . . (n ldpc −k ldpc −1) are respectively reflected by the resulting parity bit accumulators a i , i=0, 1, . . . (n ldpc −k ldpc −1); and

wherein the stored information representing the structured parity check matrix comprises a one of the following Tables 1a through 1r,

accessing, by a processor of a device, stored information representing a predetermined structured parity check matrix of a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) code, wherein the stored information reflects a tabular format of rows and columns, wherein each row represents occurrences of one values within a respective column of the parity check matrix, and wherein the columns of the parity check matrix are derived according to a predetermined operation based on the respective rows of the stored tabular information; and

encoding one or more blocks of information bits of a source signal based on the LDPC code to generate an LDPC encoded signal;

17. An apparatus, comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs,

the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:

accessing stored information representing a predetermined structured parity check matrix of a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) code, wherein the stored information reflects a tabular format of rows and columns, wherein each row represents occurrences of one values within a respective column of the parity check matrix, and wherein the columns of the parity check matrix are derived according to a predetermined operation based on the respective rows of the stored tabular information; and

encoding one or more blocks of information bits of a source signal based on the LDPC code to generate an LDPC encoded signal;

wherein the LDPC encoding of the blocks of information bits (each block being of a size of k ldpc information bits, and each resulting encoded block being of a size of n ldpc code bits including parity bits p i , i=0, 1, 2, . . . , n ldpc −k ldpc −1), comprises:

initializing parity bit accumulators a 0 =a 1 = . . . =a n ldpc −k ldpc −1 =0;

for a one of the blocks of information bits, divided into j sequential groups (each of a size of M information bits), and for j=1, 2, 3, . . . k ldpc /M: (1) accumulating a first information bit of a j th group in certain of the parity bit accumulators reflected by accumulator addresses based on a j th row of the stored tabular information; and (2) accumulating the remaining (M−1) information bits of the j th group in certain of the parity bit accumulators reflected by accumulator addresses according to {x+m mod M*q} mod(n ldpc −k ldpc ), wherein x denotes an address of the parity bit accumulator corresponding to the first bit of the group, and q=(n ldpc −k ldpc )/M; and

after all of the information bits of the one block are accumulated, sequentially performing operations (with respect to the parity bit accumulators) according to a i =a i ⊕a i-1 , i=1, 2, . . . (n ldpc −k ldpc −1), where the additions are in Galois Field (GF) 2; and

wherein the parity bits p i , i=0, 1, . . . (n ldpc −k ldpc −1) are respectively reflected by the resulting parity bit accumulators a i , i=0, 1, . . . (n ldpc −k ldpc −1); and

wherein the stored information representing the structured parity check matrix comprises a one of the following Tables 17a through 17r,

accessing, by a processor of a device, stored information representing a predetermined structured parity check matrix of a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) code, wherein the stored information reflects a tabular format of rows and columns, wherein each row represents occurrences of one values within a respective column of the parity check matrix, and wherein the columns of the parity check matrix are derived according to a predetermined operation based on the respective rows of the stored tabular information; and

encoding one or more blocks of information bits of a source signal based on the LDPC code to generate an LDPC encoded signal;

wherein the LDPC encoding of the blocks of information bits (each block being of a size of k ldpc information bits, and each resulting encoded block being of a size of n ldpc code bits including parity bits p i , i=0, 1, 2, . . . , n ldpc −k ldpc −1), comprises:

initializing parity bit accumulators a 0 =a 1 = . . . =a n ldpc −k ldpc −1 =0;

for a one of the blocks of information bits, divided into j sequential groups (each of a size of M information bits), and for j=1, 2, 3, . . . k ldpc /M: (1) accumulating a first information bit of a j th group in certain of the parity bit accumulators reflected by accumulator addresses based on a j th row of the stored tabular information; and (2) accumulating the remaining (M−1) information bits of the j th group in certain of the parity bit accumulators reflected by accumulator addresses according to

wherein the division within the second bracketed term reflects integer division, and x denotes an address of the parity bit accumulator corresponding to the first bit of the group; and

after all of the information bits are accumulated, starting with M=1, sequentially performing operations (with respect to the parity bit accumulators) according to the following (where the additions are in Galois Field (GF) 2),
