Abstract :
This paper introduces a combinatorial construction of regular low-density parity check (LDPC) codes based on balanced incomplete block designs, or more specifically on cyclic difference families of Abelian groups and affine geometries. Several constructions are presented, and the bounds on minimal distance are derived by using the concept of Pasch configurations.
