Abstract
This letter presents an enhanced list-based residual belief propagation (L-RBP) method for decoding low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. L-RBP reduces computational complexity by scheduling a concise list of residuals. Moreover, the list is partially renewed to deter a small cluster of residuals from monopolizing renewal opportunities. Simultaneously, we also incorporate a decay mechanism to constrain the residuals retained within the list, further mitigating the greediness of the algorithm. The numerical results indicate that the L-RBP has an attractive convergence speed, error rate performance, and complexity of long-length and low-rate codes in the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel.
