A coded signal is received via a physical channel. The coded signal is encoded by a parity check matrix. In some examples, the coded signal is low density parity check-encoded. The coded signal is decoded to determine a result signal. Said decoding alternatingly updates, for each one of a number of iterations, bit node values representing bits of the result signal and check node values representing constrains of the parity check matrix. In some examples, the decoding determines the result signal at a first precision and updates at least partly at a second precision which is lower than the first precision. In further examples, the number of iterations is dynamically adjusted.
