Abstract

In this paper, we propose a VLSI architecture of Reed-Solomon decoder. Our goal is the development of an architecture featuring parallel and pipelined processing to improve the speed and low power design. To achieve the this goal, we analyze the RS decoding algorithm to be used parallel and pipelined processing efficiently, and modified the Euclid's algorithm arithmetic part to apply the parallel structure in RS decoder. The overall RS decoder are compared to Shao's, and we show the 10% area efficiency than Shao's time domain decoder and three times faster, in addition, we approve the proposed RS decoders with Altera FPGA Flex 10K-50, and Implemeted with LG 0.6{\mu}$ processing.
