%0 Journal Article %T Exposing Pseudoweight Layers in Regular LDPC Code Ensembles %A Mark F. Flanagan %J Mathematics %D 2009 %I arXiv %X A solution is presented for the asymptotic growth rate of the AWGN-pseudoweight distribution of regular low-density parity-check (LDPC) code ensembles for a selected graph cover degree M >= 1. The evaluation of the growth rate requires solution of a system of 2M+1 nonlinear equations in 2M+1 unknowns. Simulation results for the pseudoweight distribution of two regular LDPC code ensembles are presented for graph covers of low degree. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0908.1298v1
