Abstract
This paper presents and demonstrates a concatenated code model (CCM) for high order, low-density parity-check (LDPC) coded modulation, which consists of a serial concatenation of an outer LDPC encoder, an inner binary-decimal conversion (BDC) encoder and a puncture. A corresponding concatenated-code belief propagation (CCBP) decoding algorithm is derived for the proposed concatenated code. Compared to other algorithms, CCBP method provides a much more excellent parallel decoding process for high order modulations. Simulation results show that the proposed CCBP algorithm performs superior to conventional belief propagation (BP) decoding within a wide range of modulation orders.
