Title
Area, throughput, and energy-efficiency trade-offs in the VLSI implementation of LDPC decoders
Abstract
Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are key ingredients for improving reliability of modern communication systems and storage devices. On the implementation side however, the design of energy-efficient and high-speed LDPC decoders with a sufficient degree of reconfigurability to meet the flexibility demands of recent standards remains challenging. This survey paper provides an overview of the state-of-the-art in the design of LDPC decoders using digital integrated circuits. To this end, we summarize available algorithms and characterize the design space. We analyze the different architectures and their connection to different codes and requirements. The advantages and disadvantages of the various choices are illustrated by comparing state-of-the-art LDPC decoder designs.
