Abstract:
A low-density parity-check (LDPC) code decoding method for decoding a set of initial log likelihood ratio (LLR) outputted by a de-mapping circuit. The decoding method comprises: receiving and storing the set of initial LLR from the de-mapping circuit; receiving and storing the set of initial LLR from a first buffer; receiving the set of initial LLR from a second buffer; performing a decoding operation according to the set of initial LLR to generate a set of intermediate LLR; determining whether the set of intermediate LLR is converged; when the set of intermediate LLR is not converged, storing the set of intermediate LLR back into the second buffer, wherein a storage space of the second buffer is greater than that of the first buffer; and when the set of intermediate LLR is converged, outputting the set of intermediate LLR as a set of decoded LLR.

Claim (Index 8):
The LDPC code decoding method according to  claim 5 , further comprising:\n after the second buffer receives the set of initial LLR from the first buffer, receiving a next set of initial LLR from the de-mapping circuit, and storing the next set of initial LLR to the first buffer.
