    This block creates a LDPC Encoder Definition variable.

    This encoder performs a reduced complexity algorithm described by Richardson and Urbanke in Appendix A of their book: Modern Coding Theory. Compared to the block "LDPC Encoder Definition (via Generator)," this encoder requires orders of magnitude fewer operations to create each codeword. This is accomplished by completing a significant amount of the complex matrix manipulation (including inverse, multiplication, and Gaussian elimination operations) during preprocessing. The disadvantage of this encoder is that it requires a specially formatted matrix. However, GNU Radio includes python scripts to format a standard parity check matrix appropriately for this encoder, as well as a small library of encoding-ready matrices for use.
