It is shown that the certain combinatorial structures called stopping sets have the important role in analysis of iterative decoding. In this paper, the number of minimum stopping sets of a product code is determined by the number of the minimum stopping sets of the corresponding component codes. As an example, the number of minimum stopping sets of the r-dimensional SPC product code is computed.
