Formally, a parity check matrix H of a linear code C is a generator matrix of the dual code, C ⊥. This means that a codeword c is in C if and only if the matrix-vector product Hc ⊤ = 0 (some authors [1] would write this in an equivalent form, cH ⊤ = 0.) The rows of a parity check matrix are the coefficients of the parity check equations. [2]
For practical purposes, parity-check matrix of a binary Goppa code is usually converted to a more computer-friendly binary form by a trace construction, that converts the -by-matrix over () to a -by-binary matrix by writing polynomial coefficients of () elements on successive rows.
In coding theory, an expander code is a [,] linear block code whose parity check matrix is the adjacency matrix of a bipartite expander graph.These codes have good relative distance (), where and are properties of the expander graph as defined later, rate (), and decodability (algorithms of running time () exist).
A multidimensional parity-check code (MDPC) is a type of error-correcting code that generalizes two-dimensional parity checks to higher dimensions. It was developed as an extension of simple parity check methods used in magnetic recording systems and radiation-hardened memory designs .
For linear block codes, the subcode nodes denote rows of the parity-check matrix H. The digit nodes represent the columns of the matrix H. The digit nodes represent the columns of the matrix H. An edge connects a subcode node to a digit node if a nonzero entry exists in the intersection of the corresponding row and column.
The parity-check matrix of a Hamming code is constructed by listing all columns of length r that are non-zero, which means that the dual code of the Hamming code is the shortened Hadamard code, also known as a Simplex code. The parity-check matrix has the property that any two columns are pairwise linearly independent.
The parity bit may be used within another constituent code. In an example using the DVB-S2 rate 2/3 code the encoded block size is 64800 symbols (N=64800) with 43200 data bits (K=43200) and 21600 parity bits (M=21600). Each constituent code (check node) encodes 16 data bits except for the first parity bit which encodes 8 data bits.
The ternary Golay code consists of 3 6 = 729 codewords. Its parity check matrix is [].Any two different codewords differ in at least 5 positions. Every ternary word of length 11 has a Hamming distance of at most 2 from exactly one codeword.
