Patent
Efficient hardware implementation of chien search polynomial reduction in reed-solomon decoding
Tod D. Wolf,Jonathan H. Shiell +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a programmable logic device, such as a digital signal processor (DSP), having a chien search unit (116 ) is disclosed. But the Chien search execution unit is not used in the decoding of a polynomial.
Patent
Programmable, reconfigurable DSP implementation of a Reed-Solomon encoder/decoder
TL;DR: In this article, the standard Reed-Solomon parameters of the Galois Field order, the primitive polynomial, the number of symbols for each codeword of the transmitted and source data are settable via writable registers.
Patent
Method and System for Decoding Low Density Parity Check Codes
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for decoding a codeword in a data stream encoded according to a low density parity check (LDPC) code having an m×j parity check matrix H by initializing variable nodes with soft values based on symbols in the codewords was presented.
Patent
DSP instruction for turbo decoding
TL;DR: In this paper, the MAX star function is applied to a lookup table built to handle both positive and negative inputs and the look up table output is summed with with the difference to form the Max star result.
Patent
Efficient look-up table methods for Reed-Solomon decoding
TL;DR: In this article, a programmable logic device (130 ) as may be used in a communication system device such as a digital subscriber line modem ( 408 ) to perform Reed-Solomon decoding upon a received frame of digital values is disclosed.
