Description
Summary:Iterative decoding algorithms based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) decoding of low density parity check (LDPC) codes has emerged as an alternating decoding method and bringed a boom of research on drawing upon mathematical optimization to LDPC decoding. Improving error-correcting performance is a key issue to enhance the superiority of ADMM decoding. In this letter, we investigate an efficient ADMM-based iterative decoder for binary LDPC codes. First, we build an mathematical programming equivalence of the maximum likelihood (ML) decoding problem by transforming parity-check constraints to multiple equivalent linear constraints and eliminating check-polytope projection (CPP). Then, an iterative algorithm based on ADMM technique is developed to solve this free-of-CPP (FCPP) equivalence and each ADMM update can be computed efficiently. Moreover, the proposed ADMM-FCPP decoding algorithm is analyzed to display a linear complexity to the length of the LDPC code at each iteration. Finally, simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed decoder in error-correcting performance compared with the state-of-the-art ADMM-based decoders.
