Block codes are typically not used for fading channels as soft decision decoding is computationally intensive and hard decision decoding results in performance loss. In this paper we propose a diversity preserving hard decision decoding scheme for parity check codes (PCC) over Rayleigh fading channels. The proposed flip decoding scheme has linear complexity in the block length. Theoretical analysis and simulation results verify the correctness of the proposed detection scheme.
