A Modified belief propagation decoding algorithm for low-density parity-check codes based on oscillating iteration

According to no-convergence of falsely oscillating iteration in the low-density parity-check(LDPC) decoding at the range from medium to high SNRs(Signal to Noise Ratios),we propose a modified LDPC belief propagation(BP) decoding algorithm,i.e.soft value zero-forcing BP algorithm.By setting extrinsic information of the oscillating iteration bit nodes into zero,the impact on the iteratively decoding from false channel information is greatly reduced.And it also improves the performance of the decoding algorithm.Furthermore,a decision criterion of oscillating iteration nodes is presented to increase the accuracy of the decision.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has better decoding performance than that of the BP algorithm with the same iterations at medium and high SNRs.
