Turbo codes [1] and LDPC codes [2] are the two best
known codes that are capable of achieving low bit error rates
(BER) at code rates approaching Shannon's capacity limit.
However, in order to achieve desired power and throughputs
for current applications (e.g., > 1Mbps in 3G wireless sys-
tems, > 1Gbps in magnetic recording systems), fully parallel
and pipelined iterative decoder architectures are needed.
Compared to turbo codes, LDPC codes enjoy a signi¯cant
advantage in terms of computational complexity and are
known to have a large amount of inherent parallelism [3].
However, the randomness of LDPC codes results in stringent
memory requirements that amount to an order of magnitude
increase in complexity compared to those for turbo codes.
A direct approach to implementing a parallel decoder ar-
chitecture would be to allocate, for each node or cluster of
nodes in the graph de¯ning the LDPC code, a function unit
for computing the reliability messages, and employ an in-
terconnection network to route messages between function
nodes (see Fig.1). A major problem with this approach is
that the interconnection networks require complex wiring
to perform global routing of messages and hence must be
deeply pipelined (e.g., bidirectional multilayered networks
in [4] and 4096-input multiplexers per function unit in [5]).
Moreover, the randomness in the pattern of communicating
messages leads to routing and congestion problems on the
networks which require extensive bu®ering to resolve.
