Abstract

This paper basically expresses the core fundamentals and brief overview of the research of R. G. GALLAGER [1] on Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes and various parameters related to LDPC codes like, encoding and decoding of LDPC codes, code rate, parity check matrix, tanner graph. We also discuss advantages and applications as well as the usage of LDPC codes in 5G technology. We have simulated encoding and decoding of LDPC codes and have acquired results in terms of BER vs SNR graph in MATLAB software. This report was submitted as an assignment in Nirma University
