Structured LDPC Codes over Integer Residue Rings

This paper presents a new class of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes over ℤ2a represented by regular, structured Tanner graphs. These graphs are constructed using Latin squares defined over a multiplicative group of a Galois ring, rather than a finite field. Our approach yields codes for a...
