STRATIFYING TECHNIQUE FOR DECODING EFFICIENTLY LDPC CODES IN 5G MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Abstract

The 5th Generation (5G) mobile communication system must meet three main criteria: wide bandwidth, high reliability and low latency. Low density parity check (LDPC) code was adopted for the 5G mobile communication system because the LDPC code reaches closely to the Shannon capacity. This paper proposes a stratifying technique to significantly reduce the decoding time and improve the bit error rate (BER). The performance of the proposed technique is evaluated in different system parameters such as energy-per-bit to noise power ratio, codeword length and code rate.
