Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are a class of highly efficient linear block codes made from many single parity check (SPC) codes. They can provide performance very close to the channel capacity (the theoretical maximum) using an iterated soft-decision decoding approach, at linear time complexity in terms of their block length.
In this example, the first bit cannot yet be recovered, because all of the constraints connected to it have more than one unknown bit. In order to proceed with decoding the message, constraints connecting to only one of the erased bits must be identified. In this example, only the second constraint suffices.

For example, p 2 provides an even parity for bits 2, 3, 6, and 7. It also details which transmitted bit is covered by which parity bit by reading the column. For example, d 1 is covered by p 1 and p 2 but not p 3 This table will have a striking resemblance to the parity-check matrix (H) in the next section.
As explained earlier, it can either detect and correct single-bit errors or it can detect (but not correct) both single and double-bit errors. With the addition of an overall parity bit, it becomes the [8,4] extended Hamming code and can both detect and correct single-bit errors and detect (but not correct) double-bit errors.
In case the burst correction capability is exceeded, interpolation may provide concealment by approximation Simple decoder strategy possible with reasonably-sized external random access memory Very high efficiency
The rate of a block code is defined as the ratio between its message length and its block length: = /. A large rate means that the amount of actual message per transmitted block is high.
