Abstract:We introduce a generalized low-density parity-check decoding framework for quantum Tanner codes utilizing soft-output guessing random additive noise decoding (SOGRAND). By soft-output decoding entire component codes rather than individual parity checks, we mitigate the effects of trapping sets and cycles, resulting in improved convergence. Because our decoder preserves the message passing structure of standard belief propagation (BP), it is compatible with many BP enhancements. We demonstrate this with OSD postprocessing, quaternary BP, and RelayBP, each yielding further gains. Standalone SOGRAND outperforms the standard BP+OSD baseline by over two orders of magnitude in logical error rate. In combination with the Relay principle, SOGRAND outperforms RelayBP by over one order of magnitude, providing a way forward for scalable decoding of the emerging class of Tanner-code-based quantum codes.
