1results about How to "Reduce Decoding Latency" patented technology

This invention discloses a layered decoding method and apparatus for LDPC frames based on mutual information, relating to the field of digital signal transmission in the physical layer of wireless communication. The method includes the following steps: 1) Calculating the LLR value of a given codeword to be decoded, and performing Q-ratio specific-point quantization to maximize mutual information on the entire frame's LLR value; 2) Calculating the PP value of the Q-ratio specific-point quantized LLR value according to Bayes' formula; 3) Layering the PP values ​​of the LLR values ​​of the data to be decoded according to the coefficients of the parity check matrix H; 4) Calculating the information within the information node; 5) Performing parity check node update calculations according to the PMS decoding algorithm to obtain the information value outside the parity check node; 6) Updating the information node using the information value outside the parity check node; 7) Symbol decoding; 8) Calculating the syndrome according to H. If the result of the syndrome is 0 or the maximum number of iterations is reached, outputting the three-frame codeword result; otherwise, returning to step 3) for the next decoding iteration. This invention can effectively improve the decoding processing speed of each frame.
