<H1> Examples of LDPC Program Usage </H1>
<P>Below, are some command files containing examples of the use of
the <A HREF="progs.html">LDPC programs</A>, together with the output I
obtained for these examples. Output on other machines might
conceivably be slightly different, due to different round-off errors.
The <A HREF="run-examples"><TT>run-examples</TT></A> script runs all the example
scripts and compares their output with the outputs that I obtained (on
a Pentium machine).

A (7,4) Hamming code used with a BSC.
Demonstrates encoding of random messages and decoding to minimize
bit error rate by exhaustive enumeration.

<BLOCKQUOTE>
A (7,4) Hamming code used with an AWGN channel. Tested using zero messages.
Decoded by exhaustive enumeration to minimize either block or bit error rate,
and by probability propagation.

<BLOCKQUOTE>
Examples of how parity check matrices with linearly dependent rows (ie,
redundant parity checks) are handled. This is probably not of
great interest to most users.

<BLOCKQUOTE>
Encodes messages with an LDPC code using sparse, dense, and mixed
representations of the generator matrix.

<BLOCKQUOTE>
A (2000,1000) LDPC code with 3 checks per bit and 6 bits per check.
Three encoding methods are tried out, and the code is
tested on an AWGN channel at various noise levels, using random messages.

<BLOCKQUOTE>
A (10000,5000) LDPC code with 3 checks per bit and 6 bits per check.
Tested on an AWGN channel at various noise levels, using random messages.
Pipes are used to avoid creating lots of files.

<BLOCKQUOTE>
A (10000,5000) LDPC code with the number of checks per bit varying from 2 to 7.
Tested on an AWGN channel at various noise levels, using random messages.
Pipes are used to avoid creating lots of files. Performance is better than
for the code above in which the number of checks is the same for all bits.

<BLOCKQUOTE>
Tests what happens when messages are decoded using the wrong noise
model, including using the right type of model but with the wrong
noise level, and using the wrong type of model (ie, using an AWLN model
for messages transmitted through an AWGN channel, or vice versa).
