• Designed the LDPC decoder in the Matlab using the min-sum approach. - Designed quantized RTL in Verilog with the min-sum approach and parallel architecture. - Created modules for all variants of the variable node unit(VNU) and the check-node unit(CNU) based on the H matrix. Created script for module instantiation of VNU and CNU as per the H matrix. - Verified the functionality of the Verilog implementation by self-checking test-bench in Verilog to compare the results with Matlab.

This section explains the files that are used for the entire project execution, as mentioned below:

Matlab files calculate_minsum: function for calculating the minsum check_node_processing: CNU LDPC: ldpc decoder without the function, as a standalone script Ldpc_decoder: main ldpc decoder function for the decoding Quant_llr: used for quantization Regular_Hcheck: function for checking the regularity of the H matrix Script_LDPC: file provided with the project aim Variable_node_proessing: VNU Verilog_tb_generation: script for testbench generation Verilog_generation: script for instantiating all the modules
