Abstract

Provided is an apparatus and method for encoding a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) code using a message passing algorithm. The apparatus, includes: a parity calculating unit for operating a check node value on an input bit and a predetermined parity bit according to the message passing algorithm and calculating a parity bit; a parity correcting unit for correcting the calculated parity bit according to a parity check result of the calculated parity bit; and an output transform unit for combining the input bit and the corrected parity bit.
