Method and Apparatus for Decoding Low-Density Parity-Check Codes

摘要

A method and an apparatus for decoding low-density parity-check codes are provided. A first decoding unit performs decoding computation on a first code word from a second time period to an Oth time period. A second decoding unit performs decoding computation on a second code word from a third time period to an (O+1)th time period. An Nth decoding unit performs decoding computation on an Nth code word from an (N+1)th time period to an (N+O-1)th time period. An Mth decoding unit performs decoding computation on an Mth code word from an (M+1)th time period to an (M+O-1)th time period. Each decoding unit may perform decoding computation in multiple time periods.
