Detailed Description

Parity check matrix in Richardson/Urbanke format.

This class stores a matrix for use with the ldpc_encoder class. It must be of the specific format described by Richardson and Urbanke in Appendix A of their book: Modern Coding Theory (ISBN 978-0-521-85229-6). The form is:

This class can be used with the ldpc_bit_flip_decoder.

To convert a parity check matrix to this format, use the python functions in: /lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gnuradio/fec/LDPC/Generate_LDPC_matrix.py.

Member Function Documentation

decode()

virtual void gr::fec::code::ldpc_H_matrix::decode ( unsigned char *  outbuffer, const float *  inbuffer, unsigned int  frame_size, unsigned int  max_iterations  ) const

pure virtual

Decode inbuffer with LDPC H matrix into outbuffer.

Implements gr::fec::code::fec_mtrx.

encode()

virtual void gr::fec::code::ldpc_H_matrix::encode ( unsigned char *  outbuffer, const unsigned char *  inbuffer  ) const

pure virtual

Encode inbuffer with LDPC H matrix into outbuffer.

Implements gr::fec::code::fec_mtrx.

k()

virtual unsigned int gr::fec::code::ldpc_H_matrix::k ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the information word length k.

Implements gr::fec::code::fec_mtrx.

make()

static sptr gr::fec::code::ldpc_H_matrix::make ( const std::string  filename, unsigned int  gap  )

static

Constructor given alist file and gap.

Parameters

filename	Name of an alist file to use. The alist format is described at: http://www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk/mackay/codes/alist.html
gap	A property of the matrix being used. For alist files distributed with GNU Radio, this value is specified in the alist filename. The gap is found during the matrix preprocessing algorithm. It is equal to the number of rows in submatrices E, C and D.

n()

virtual unsigned int gr::fec::code::ldpc_H_matrix::n ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the codeword length n.

Implements gr::fec::code::fec_mtrx.
