This correspondence presents a jointly designed quasicyclic (QC) low-density parity-check (LDPC) coded-relay cooperation with joint-iterative decoding in the destination node. Firstly, a design-theoretic construction of QC-LDPC codes based on a combinatoric design approach known as optical orthogonal codes (OOC) is presented. Proposed OOC-based construction gives three classes of binary QC-LDPC codes with no length-4 cycles by utilizing some known ingredients including binary matrix dispersion of elements of finite field, incidence matrices, and circulant decomposition. Secondly, the proposed OOC-based construction gives an effective method to jointly design length-4 cycles free QC-LDPC codes for coded-relay cooperation, where sum-product algorithm- (SPA-) based joint-iterative decoding is used to decode the corrupted sequences coming from the source or relay nodes in different time frames over constituent Rayleigh fading channels. Based on the theoretical analysis and simulation results, proposed QC-LDPC coded-relay cooperations outperform their competitors under same conditions over the Rayleigh fading channel with additive white Gaussian noise.

In this paper, we study a class of nonbinary LDPC (NBLDPC) codes whose parity-check matrices have column weight 2, called NBLDPC cycle codes. We propose a design framework of 2 , ρ -regular binary quasi-cyclic (QC) LDPC codes and then construct NBLDPC cycle codes of large girth based on circulants and finite fields by randomly choosing the nonzero field elements in their parity-check matrices. For enlarging the girth values, our approach is twofold. First, we give an exhaustive search of circulants with column/row weight ρ and design a masking matrix with good cycle distribution based on the edge-node relation in undirected graphs. Second, according to the designed masking matrix, we construct the exponent matrix based on finite fields. The iterative decoding performances of the constructed codes on the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel are finally provided.
