| Abstrakt: | Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are widely recognized for their excellent forward error correction, near-Shannon-limit performance, and support for high data rates with effective hardware parallelization. Their convolutional counterpart, LDPC convolutional codes (LDPC-CCs), offer additional advantages such as variable codeword lengths, unlimited paritycheck matrices, and simpler encoding and decoding. These features make LDPC-CCs particularly suitable for practical implementations with varying channel conditions and data frame sizes. This paper investigates the performance of LDPC-CCs using the extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) chart, a graphical tool for analyzing iterative decoding. EXIT charts visualize mutual information exchange and help predict convergence behavior, estimate performance thresholds, and optimize code design. Starting with the EXIT chart principles for LDPC codes, we derived the mutual information functions for variable and check nodes in regular and irregular LDPC-CC tanner graphs. This involved adapting existing EXIT functions to the periodic parity-check matrix of LDPC-CCs. We compare regular and irregular LDPC-CC constructions, examining the impact of degree distributions and the number of periods in the parity-check matrix on convergence behavior. Our simulations show that irregular LDPC-CCs consistently outperform regular ones, and the EXIT chart analysis confirms that LDPC-CCs demonstrate superior bit error rate (BER) performance compared to equivalent LDPC block codes.
