The Berlekamp-Massey algorithm, the method of using the Euclid algorithm, and Fourier transforms over a finite field can be used for the decoding of Reed-Solomon codes (called RS codes). RS codes can also be decoded by the algorithm that was developed by Peterson and refined by the Gorenstein and Zierler. However, the decoding of RS codes using the Peterson-Gorenstein-Zieler algorithm offers sometimes computational or implementation advantages. The decoding procedure of the double-error correcting (31,27) Rs code over the symbol field GF ($2^5$) will be analyized in this paper. The complete analysis, gate array design, and implementation for encoder/decoder pair of (31.27)RS code are performed with a strong theoretical justification.

This paper presents a method of designing a Bit-Serial Reed-Solomon encoder using Berlekamp's Bit-Serial Multiplier Algorithm and the implementation of the (255, 223) Bit-Serial Reed-Solomon encoder using TTL logics. It is shown from these results that this encoder require substanitially less hardware than the convenional Reed-Solomon encoders.

RS product codes are widely used in digital storage systems. There are lots of decoding strategies for product code for short-length RS codes. Unfortunately many of them cannot be applied to long-length RS product codes because of the complexity of decoder. This paper proposes new decoding strategies which can be used in long length RS product codes.

This paper is the FPGA Implementation of Reed-Solomon Encoder that is one of Error control Codes. Reed-Solomon codes are block-based error control codes with a wide range of applications in digital communications. RS codes are strong on burst errors because it process signals as symbol. We simulate this system using Matlab from Mathworks and design it using System Generator from Xilinx. We refer Matlab source in Implementation of Reed-Solomon Error Control Coding for Compressed Images by Simon Anthony Raspa.

Reed-Solomon(RS) codes have been employed to correct burst errors in applications such as CD-ROM, HDTV, ATM and digital VCRs. For the decoding RS codes, the Berlekamp-Massey algorithm, Euclidean algorithm and modified Euclidean algorithm(MEA) have been developed among which the MEA becomes the most popular decoding scheme. We propose an efficient recursive cell architecture suitable for the MEA. The advantages of the proposed scheme are twofold. First, The proposed architecture uses about 25% less clock cycles required in the MEA operation than[1]. Second, the number of recursive MEA cells can be reduced, when the number of clock cycles spent in the MEA operation is larger than code word length n. thereby buffer requirement for the received words can be reduced. For demonstration, the MEA circurity for (128,124) RS code have been described and the MEA operation is verified through VHDL.

Reed-Solomon(RS) code which is especially effective against burst error is studied as a forward error correction technique in this ppaer. The circuits of RS encoder and decoder for ASIC implementation are designed and presented employing modified Euclid's algorithm. The functionalities of the designed circuits are verified though C programs which simulates the circuits over the various errors and erasures. The pipelined circuits using systolic arrays are designed for ASIC realization in VHDL, and verified through the logic simulations. Finally the circuit synthesis of RS encoder and decoder can be achieved.

In this paper, a novel reversible data hiding by using Reed-Solomon (RS) code is proposed for efficient transmission in encryption image. To increase the recovery of data from encrypted image, RS codes are used to encode messages, and then the codewords can be embedded into encrypted image according to encryption key. After receiving encrypted image which embeds the codewords, the receiver firstly decryptes the encrypted image using the encryption key and get metric about codewords containing messages. According to recovery capability of RS codes, better estimation of message is done in data hiding system. Simulation results about two images and two RS codes show that the performances of the proposed schemes are better than ones of the reference scheme.

In this paper, we present an efficient architecture of a versatile Reed-Solomon (RS) decoder which can be programmed to decode RS codes continuously with my message length k as well as any block length n. This unique feature eliminates the need of inserting zeros for decoding shortened RS codes. Also, the values of the parameters n and k, hence the error-correcting capability t can be altered at every codeword block. The decoder permits 3-step pipelined processing based on the modified Euclid's algorithm (MEA). Since each step can be driven by a separate clock, the decoder can operate just as 2-step pipeline processing by employing the faster clock in step 2 and/or step 3. Also, the decoder can be used even in the case that the input clock is different from the output clock. Each step is designed to have a structure suitable for decoding RS codes with varying block length. A new architecture for the MEA is designed for variable values of the t. The operating length of the shift registers in the MEA block is shortened by one, and it can be varied according to the different values of the t. To maintain the throughput rate with less circuitry, the MEA block uses both the recursive technique and the over-clocking technique. The decoder can decodes codeword received not only in a burst mode, but also in a continuous mode. It can be used in a wide range of applications because of its versatility. The adaptive RS decoder over GF($2^8$) having the error-correcting capability of upto 10 has been designed in VHDL, and successfully synthesized in an FPGA chip.
