In this paper, we present a jointly-check iterative algorithm suitable for decoding quantum sparse graph codes efficiently. Numerical simulations show that this modified method outperforms standard BP algorithm with an obvious performance improvement.展开更多

The parity check matrices of these type-Ⅱ QC-LDPC codes consist of the zero matrices with weight of 0, the circulant permutation matrices(CPMs) with weight of 1 and the circulant matrices with weight of 2(W2CMs). The introduction of W2CMs in parity check matrices makes it possible to achieve the larger minimum distance which can improve the error-correction performance of the codes. The Tanner graphs of these codes have no girth-4, thus they have the excellent decoding convergence characteristics. In addition, because the parity check matrices have the quasi-dual diagonal structure, the fast encoding algorithm can reduce the encoding complexity effectively. Simulation results show that the new type-Ⅱ QC-LDPC codes can achieve a more excellent error-correction performance and have no error floor phenomenon over the additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) channel with sum-product algorithm(SPA) iterative decoding.展开更多
