We present the design of a planar-integrated optoelectronic vector-matrix multiplier. The inherent parallel-processing potential is fully exploited by optical implementation of multiplications and summations. Planar integration makes the free-spa

Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes have recently emerged due to their excellent performance. However, the parity check (H) matrices of the previous works are not adequate for hardware implementation of encoders or decoders. This paper prop
