A BER performance-aware early termination scheme for layered LDPC decoder

This paper presents a novel early termination scheme for layered LDPC decoder. By solving the bit error rate (BER) performance degradation which will occur when other early termination schemes are applied in layered LDPC decoder, the proposed method achieves very fast termination speed without BER performance loss. It is the best solution for BER performance-aware layered LDPC decoders, such as satellite video broadcasting applications.
