In order to obtain the balance of the decoding rate and the hardware consumption
a new method to implement LDPC decoding algorithm is proposed.For the characteristics of the decoding algorithm
this method is based on an up-to-date parallel technique from Impulse C programming to hardware implementation.A decoder for a family of (3
6) LDPC Codes with a code rate of 0.5 and a block size of 2500 bits is implemented on Xilinx Virtex2 XC2V2000.By performing maximum 10 decoding iterations
the decoder can achieve a maximum bit throughput of 10Mbps.
