Abstract

A structured parity-check matrix H is proposed, wherein H is an expansion of a base matrix Hb. Base matrix Hb comprises a section Hb1 and a section Hb2. Section Hb2 comprises column hb having weight wh>=3 and H′b2 having a dual-diagonal structure with matrix elements at row i, column j equal to 1 for i=j, 1 for i=j+1, and 0 elsewhere. The 1's of hb and Hb1 are arranged such that one or more groups of the rows of Hb can be formed so that the rows of Hb within each group do not intersect. Further more, the rows of base matrix Hb can be permuted such that every two consecutive rows do not intersect.
