Abstract
In this paper, we introduce the overview and detailed structure of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, which are adopted for the physical layer standard of Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0. As one of the features to mitigate channel errors efficiently, LDPC codes are used as a main part of forward error correction scheme within the bit interleaved coded modulation chain. This paper presents two different structures of LDPC codes in the ATSC 3.0 standard: 1) irregular repeat accumulate structure and 2) multi-edge type structure. After the detailed encoding methods for the two structures are introduced, the performance results including comparison studies with other broadcasting standards such as DVB-T2 and DVB-S2 are shown.
