Abstract

In this paper, we propose a partially-parallel irregular LDPC decoder for IEEE 802.11n standard. The design is based on a novel sum-delta message passing schedule to achieve high throughput and low area cost design. We further improve the design with pipeline structure and parallel computation. The synthesis result in TSMC 0.18 CMOS technology demonstrates that for (648,324) irregular LDPC code, our decoder achieves 7.5X improvement in throughput, which reaches 402 Mbps at the frequency of 200MHz, with 11% area reduction.
