Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes are a type of error-correcting code used to transmit messages over noisy channels, characterized by a sparse parity-check matrix. These codes enable efficient error correction close to the Shannon limit, which is the theoretical maximum data rate of a communication channel. LDPC codes are widely recognized for their performance in modern communication systems and play a crucial role in achieving reliable data transmission.
congrats on reading the definition of LDPC. now let's actually learn it.
