LDPC DECODING ALGORITHMS FOR COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES

Error-correcting coding is an essential tool for enabling reliable communication.

Waveworks’s unique low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoding algorithm achieves a superior performance compared to known decoding algorithms in the market. Wavework’s LDPC decoding technology enables a low power, hardware-efficient implementation of LDPC forward error correcting (FEC) schemes intended for the 10GBase-T Ethernet (IEEE 802.3an), G.hn/G.9960 (ITU-T Standard for networking over power lines, phone lines and coaxial cable), DVB-S2 (Digital video broadcasting second generation), WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e standard for microwave communications), IEEE 802.11n (Wireless Local Area Network) and, WiGig Standard (Wireless Gigabit Communication over the unlicensed 60GHz Band).
