Double-Hamming based QC LDPC codes with large minimum distance
A new method using Hamming codes to construct base matrices of (J, K)-regular LDPC convolutional codes with large free distance is presented. By proper labeling the corresponding base matrices and tailbiting these parent convolutional codes to given lengths, a large set of quasi-cyclic (QC) (J, K)-regular LDPC block codes with large minimum distance is obtained. The corresponding Tanner graphs hav
