A communication device (alternatively, device) includes a processor configured to support communications with other communication device(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. In some examples, the device includes a communication interface and a processor, among other possible circuitries, components, elements, etc. to support communications with other communication device(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. The device receives a non-binary low density parity check (NB-LDPC) coded signal. The device then decodes the NB-LDPC coded signal using a NB-LDPC matrix to generate estimates of information bits encoded therein. The NB-LDPC matrix is characterized by a base proto-matrix having elements that represent sub-matrices, and the elements are selected from a finite Galois field that includes symbols. In another example, the device encodes other information bits using a generator matrix to generate another NB-LDPC coded signal and then transmits this other NB-LDPC coded signal.
