AB  - This paper aims to provide a reduced-complexity decoding for satellite communication systems to enhance system performance and transmission efficiency. By addressing the complexity, error rate, and latency issues for satellite communications, a novel 3-dimensional product decoding scheme is proposed. The density evolution algorithm is also introduced to analyze and optimize for the binary message passing decoding, which further reduces the computational complexity and latency. The simulation results show that the proposed method can obtain about 0.3- and 0.15-dB performance gains compared to the similar decodings of the conventional 2-dimensional BCH product codes and staircase codes, respectively. Our proposed coding scheme offers a broad prospect to the critical issues of transmission latency and data throughput in satellite networks.
