Abstract
An LDPC decoding method is disclosed in which the LDPC code is defined by a parity matrix having a layered structure, and the method involves performing iterations until a stop criterion is satisfied. Each iteration involves the successive processing of the different layers. Processing a layer involves calculating variable messages (a), calculating parity check messages, calculating a posteriori estimation variables (γ), and calculating a partial syndrome. The evaluation of the stop criterion involves checking if, for a plurality of successive iterations, the number of iterations for which all the partial syndromes are zero, from which the number of iterations for which at least one of the partial syndromes is non-zero is subtracted, is greater than or equal to a predetermined stop threshold.
