ADMM-based Decoder for Binary Linear Codes Aided by Deep Learning

Inspired by the recent advances in deep learning (DL), this work presents a deep neural network aided decoding algorithm for binary linear codes. Based on the concept of deep unfolding, we design a decoding network by unfolding the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM)-penalized decoder. In addition, we propose two improved versions of the proposed network. The first one transforms the penalty parameter into a set of iteration-dependent ones, and the second one adopts a specially designed penalty function, which is based on a piecewise linear function with adjustable slopes. Numerical results show that the resulting DL-aided decoders outperform the original ADMM-penalized decoder for various low density parity check (LDPC) codes with similar computational complexity.
