Abstract
In Reed Solomon decoder, when there are more than 4 error symbols, we usually use Chien search machine to find those error positions. In this case, classical method requires complex and relatively slow digital circuitry to implement it. In this paper we propose New fast and cost effective Chien search machine design method using Galois Subfield transformation. Example is given to show the method is working well. This new design can be applied to the case where there are more than 5 symbol errors in the Reed-Solomon code word.
