Abstract:
1. A method of implementing a programmable LDPC decoder system, the method comprising the steps of: storing, during a first period of time, a first set of decoding instructions in a module in an LDPC decoder, said first set of decoding instructions corresponding to a first LDPC code structure; operating the LDPC decoder to perform an LDPC decoding operation using the stored first set of decoding instructions; storing, during a second period of time, a second set of decoding instructions, said second set of decoding instructions being different from said first set and corresponding to a second LDPC code structure which is different from said first LDPC code structure; and operating the LDPC decoder to perform an LDPC decoding operation using the stored second set of decoding instructions.
