Abstract

In this paper, we propose a puncturing scheme to design low-density parity-matrix (LDPC) codes for unequal error protection (UEP). Two different puncturing schemes are compared. Simulation results show that proposed puncturing scheme outperforms regular puncturing scheme for more important bits. Future work is to find an optimized puncturing patten for UEP irregular LDPC codes.
