Hello everyone,
I have designed an LDPC decoder for 802.11n standard ( code 1944 ), using min sum algorithm. I am trying to compute the BER performance over different values of SNR.
So, at each decoding iteration, i compare the temporary decoded codeword with the original one and sum the number of unequal bits.
Problem is that instead of the errors becoming fewer after every iteration, they become more. Also, different SNR levels seem to have no impact on the BER as i constantly get around 0.5-0.6.
Any suggestions as to what could have gone wrong?

Thank you in advance,
Nikos
