This paper proposes a two-stage iterative decoding scheme named matrix transform belief propagation scheme (MT-BP) based on conventional belief propagation (BP) algorithm for lowdensity parity-check (LDPC) codes. By introducing information measurement, location vectors and parity check matrix transform, the proposed method can establish additional parity check equations and take more information bits of variable nodes into consideration compared with conventional BP algorithm. The simulations are performed on random regular LDPC codes and algebraic quasi-cyclic codes (QC-LDPC), the experimental results show MT-BP method can efficiently reduce the bit error rate (BER).
