Comparative survey of the state-of-the-art. Note that, while there are multiple implementation case studies in [19, 21], we only list here those cases which are the closest in terms of the QC-LDPC code used in our case study, namely the IEEE 802.11n (WiFi) (1944, 972) QC-LDPC code with . Development time (wherever reported) quantifies the programming effort required. This measure of the programming effort has been defined in [20] and is adopted here to facilitate an unambiguous comparison. In our work, the development effort is of the order of a few days of programming effort, once the algorithm to be implemented is finalized; including the total compile time which is of the order of tens of minutes.
