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]
where is the identity matrix and P is a () matrix. When the generator matrix is in standard form, the code C is systematic in its first k coordinate positions. [3] A generator matrix can be used to construct the parity check matrix for a code
A generator matrix for the dual code is the parity-check matrix for the original code and vice versa. The dual of the dual code is always the original code.
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.
A matrix H representing a linear function : whose kernel is C is called a check matrix of C (or sometimes a parity check matrix). Equivalently, H is a matrix whose null space is C . If C is a code with a generating matrix G in standard form, G = [ I k ∣ P ] {\displaystyle {\boldsymbol {G}}=[I_{k}\mid P]} , then H = [ − P T ∣ I n − k ...
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.
For general , the generator matrix of the augmented Hadamard code is a parity-check matrix for the extended Hamming code of length and dimension , which makes the augmented Hadamard code the dual code of the extended Hamming code. Hence an alternative way to define the Hadamard code is in terms of its parity-check matrix: the parity-check ...
