Summary:
The frame error rate (FER) of spatially-coupled irregular low-density parity-check (SC-iLDPC) code ensemble in error floor region is estimated. First, the number of codewords of each weight is calculated by the permutations of all the sub-codewords at their coupling positions. Second, the FER is estimated by these numbers of the codewords of each weight. Numerical results show that the FER performances in the error floor regions of the SC-iLDPC code ensembles are superior to the conventional irregular LDPC code ensembles at almost identical belief-propagation (BP) thresholds.
