Abstract
The decoding of low-girth Low-Density Parity-Check code using the conventional method generates an error floor during decoding. Therefore, a neural network-based decoder can be used to overcome this problem to decode lowgirth code. However, the neural network-based decoder may not be best suitable for high-girth code. In the current work, a neural network-based low-girth LDPC decoder is developed to decode an image sample of low as well as high-girth code. The NN decoder performs best for low-girth code. However, performance in comparison with a similar decoder, the decoder developed in the current work has improved bit error rate for the same signal-to-noise ratio.

Keywords
Feed-forward neural network, High-girth code, Low-density parity-check code, Low-girth code, Min-sum decoder.
