Recently, low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes have attracted much attention because of their excellent error correcting performance and highly parallelizable decoding scheme. However, the effective VLSI implementation of and LDPC decoder remains a big challenge and is a crucial issue in determining how well we can exploit the benefits of the LDPC codes in the real applications. In this master thesis report, following a error coding background, we describe Low-Density Parity-Check codes and their decoding algorithm, and also requirements and architectures of LPDC decoder implementations.
