Basis matrix, rate, degree distribution and computational complexity were analyzed and the results show that the rate of the novel structure is promoted with the degree distribution of check nodes become larger. Finally, the performance of the proposed novel structure is verified by BP decoding. %U https://journal.bupt.edu.cn/EN/10.13190/j.jbupt.2019-087
