Irregular low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes generally have good decoding performance in the waterfall region, but they exhibit higher error floors than regular ones. In this letter, we present a hybrid method, which combines code construction and the iterative decoding algorithm, to tackle this problem. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme decreases the error floor significantly for irregular LDPC codes over binary-input additive white Gaussian noise (BIAWGN) channel.
