Summary: | Abstract In this paper, a scheme to construct the high-rate regular quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check (QC-LDPC) codes is developed based on the finite geometry low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. To achieve this, we first decompose the EG-LDPC code into a set of the block submatrices with each of them being cyclic. Utilizing the decomposed structure, we then construct an auxiliary matrix to facilitate us for identifying and eliminating 6-cycles of the block submatrices. In the simulation, seven regular QC-LDPC codes with code rates being 4/5, 7/8, 10/11, 11/12, and 12/13 of moderate code lengths are constructed with this scheme. The performances of these codes demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
