Installation

If you already have a working Python environment (Anaconda for e.g):

pip install --upgrade pyldpc

Otherwise, we recommend creating this minimal conda env

conda env create --file environment.yml
conda activate pyldpc-env
pip install -U pyldpc

Example

>>> import numpy as np
>>> from pyldpc import make_ldpc, encode, decode, get_message
>>> n = 15
>>> d_v = 4
>>> d_c = 5
>>> snr = 100
>>> H, G = make_ldpc(n, d_v, d_c, systematic=True, sparse=True)
>>> k = G.shape[1]
>>> v = np.random.randint(2, size=k)
>>> y = encode(G, v, snr)
>>> d = decode(H, y, snr)
>>> x = get_message(G, d)
>>> assert abs(x - v).sum() == 0
