Abstract
The performance of a belief propagation decoder for low-density parity-check codes is limited by the presence of
trapping sets in the code’s graph. This leads to an error floor at higher signal-to-noise ratios. We propose the use of an
augmented decoder which operates by iteratively decoding on a set of graphs which have a subset of repeated
check nodes. We compare the augmented decoder to other modified belief propagation decoders that have been
presented in the literature. We show that for all the codes considered, the augmented decoder yields the best frame
error rate in the error floor region.
