An improvement is presented to the offset min-sum decoding algorithm for low-density parity check codes. The proposed algorithm introduces a more efficient adjustment for check-node update computation in view of different minimum values. According to the optimal correction factor of normalized min-sum algorithm, we can determine the adaptive offset item. The improved algorithm achieves a noticeable performance gain with only a modest increase in computation complexity
