Abstract
The invention provides a method for updating check-node of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes decoder. The method comprises the following steps: First of all, sort all data that are input into the check-node of LDPC codes decoder to find a minimum absolute value and a second minimum absolute value. Secondly, compare each of all the data to both of the minimum absolute value. If the compared data is equivalent to the current minimum absolute value, the compared data is updated by the secondary minimum absolute value. Otherwise, the compared data is updated by the minimum absolute value.
Claims2
A method for updating the data on check-node of the LDPC coders decoder, which comprises:
- sorting all data inputs to the check-node of LDPC to find a minimum absolute value and second minimum value;
- and
- comparing every individual data input to the check-node with the current minimum absolute value;
- if the compared data is equivalent to the current minimum absolute value, the compared data is updated by the secondary minimum absolute value. Otherwise, the compared data is updated by the minimum absolute value.
An apparatus for updating the data on check-node of the LDPC coders decoder, which comprises:
- a sorter for sorting all data inputs to the check-node of LDPC to find a minimum absolute value and second minimum value;
- and
- a comparator for comparing every individual data input to the check-node with the current minimum absolute value;
- if the compared data is equivalent to the current minimum absolute value, the compared data is updated by the secondary minimum absolute value. Otherwise, the compared data is updated by the minimum absolute value.
