A New Hybrid Decoding Algorithm for LDPC Codes Based on the Improved Variable Multi Weighted Bit-Flipping and BP Algorithms

In this paper, a new two-stage hybrid algorithm for decoding Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes is proposed that incorporates two iterative decoding. For the first stage ofdecoding, we offer a new decoding algorithm called Improved Variable Multi Weighted Bit-Flipping (IVMWBF) algorithm.Since the IVMWBF algorithm is based on the idea of flipping variable multi bits in each iteration, both improvement in performance and reduction in iteration number andcomputational complexity are observed in this algorithm. The proposed hybrid algorithm which is a combination of theIVMWBF and BP algorithms, while having a performance exactly similar to that of the BP algorithm, has less complexity compared to that algorithm
