摘要:

针对光通信系统日益发展的需要, 提出了一种的基于有限域准循环低密度奇偶校验(QC-LDPC)码的构造方法。该构造方法简单易行, 可以有效避免四环的出现, 具有良好的围长特性, 同时能够自由地选择码长码率。仿真分析表明: 通过该构造方法所构造的码率为93.7%的QC-LDPC(3780,3540)码的纠错性能优于利用随机构造方法所构造的SCG-LDPC(3969,3720)码和已广泛用于ITU-T G.975中的RS(255,239)码和ITU-T G.975.1 中的LDPC(32640,30592)码, 因而其更适合于光通信系统。

Abstract:

According to the requirements of the increasing developments for optical communication systems, a construction method of Quasi-Cyclic Low-Density Parity-Check(QC-LDPC) codes, based on the finite field, is presented. This construction method is simpler and easier to implement, can effectively avoid the grith-4 phenomena and has the advantages such as better girth-length properties and more flexible code-length code-rate adjustment. The simulation results show that the error-correction performance of the QC-LDPC(3780,3540) with the code-rate of 93.7% structured by this construction method is better than those of the SCG-LDPC(3969,3720) structured by the random construction method, the classic RS(255,239) code which is widely used in optical communication systems in ITU-T G.975 and the LDPC(32640,30592) code ITU-T G.975.1. Furthermore, the constructed QC-LDPC(5334,4962) code is more suitable for optical communication systems.
