Abstract

For low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes decoding by alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM), the layered scheduling sequentially updates the messages of check nodes one by one. Though the layered scheduling can speed up the convergence rates, it may limit the throughput when implementing the ADMM decoder with multi-core systems due to its serial style. To circumvent this problem, a group-based layered scheduling is proposed by updating a group of check node messages at one time. Extensive simulation results for the proposed scheme over two typical LDPC codes with the ADMM penalized decoding algorithm are provided.
