A reduced complexity LDPC decoding method for regular LDPC code is extended to irregular LDPC codes; we present in this paper a full description of this method and its benefits for various row weight and length code word. The SplitRow method makes column processing parallelism easier to exploit and significantly simplifies row processors. Simulation results over an additive white Gaussian channel show that the error performance of high row-weight codes with Split-Row decoding is within 0.3-0.5 dB of the Min-Sum algorithm.

We propose and analyze a noncoherent receiver with PN code tracking for direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) communication systems. We employ the delay-lock loop (DLL) architectures for the tracking stage. The choice of DLL parameters is studied with special focus on DS-CDMA communication systems and orthogonality conditions. We described the modeling and simulation of the NCO using hardware description language VHDL. Details of the VHDL implementation are shown.
