Abstract

We consider the ensemble of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes introduced by Gallager [1]. The Zyablov-Pinsker majority-logic iterative algorithm [2] for decoding LDPC codes is analyzed on the binary symmetric channel. An analytical lower bound on the error-correcting capability 驴 max that grows linearly in the code block length is obtained.
