High-Throughput Decoder for Low-Density Parity-Check Code (2009)

Tatsuyuki Ishikawa, Kazunori Shimizu, Takeshi Ikenaga, Satoshi Goto

Abstract — We have designed and implemented the LDPC decoder chip with memory-reduction method to achieve high-throughput and practical chip size. The decoder decodes (3,6)-2304bit regular LDPC...

An Area-Efficient GF(2 m) MSD Multiplier based on an MSB Multiplier for Elliptic Curve LSI (2008)

Ryuta Nara, Kazunori Shimizu, Shunitsu Kohara, Nozomu Togawa, Masao Yanagisawa, Tatsuo Ohtsuki

Abstract: In this paper, we propose an MSD (most significant digit) multiplier based on an MSB (most significant bit) multiplier over GF(2 m). The proposed multiplier is based on connecting D (digit...

Low Power LDPC Code Decoder Architecture Based on Intermediate Message Compression Technique (2008)

SHIMIZU, Kazunori, TOGAWA, Nozomu, IKENAGA, Takeshi, GOTO, Satoshi

Reducing the power dissipation for LDPC code decoder is a major challenging task to apply it to the practical digital communication systems. In this paper, we propose a low power LDPC code decoder...
