An area‐ and energy‐efficient encoding method and encoder architecture are proposed for the quasi‐cyclic low‐density parity check (LDPC) in near‐earth applications recommended by the Consultant Committee for Space Data Systems. The proposed encoding method reduces the computational complexity using...
