The framework we choose is to design multiuser LDPC codes with joint belief propagation decoding on the joint graph of the 2-user case. Our main result compared to existing work is to express analytically EXIT functions of the multiuser decoder with two different approximations of the density evolution. This allows us to propose a very simple linear programming optimization for the complicated problem of LDPC code design with joint multiuser decoding. The stability condition for our case is derived and used in the optimization constraints. The codes that we obtain for the 2-user case are quite good for various rates especially if we consider the very simple optimization procedure. Copyright 2007 A. Roumy and D. Declercq.

INTRODUCTION In this paper we address the problem of designing good LDPC codes for the Gaussian multiple access channel MAC . The corner points of the capacity region have long been known to be achievable by single-user decoding. This idea was also used to achieve any point of the capacity region by means of rate splitting 1 . Here we focus on the design of multiuser .
