In this paper, the performance analysis of telemetering method using delayed frame time diversity (DFTD) as the outer code and Reed-Solomon (RS) code as the inner code is described. DFTD is used to transmit a real-time frame together with a time-delayed frame which was saved in the memory during a defined period. The RS code as a kind of FEC (forward error correction) is serially concatenated with DFTD. This method was applied to the design of telemetry units that have been used for flight tests in a communication environment with deep fading. The data of the flight test for four cases with no applied code, with DFTD only, with the RS code only, and with both DFTD and the RS code are used to analyze the performance. The simulation for time-delay suggests the possibility that all frame errors can be removed. And the results of 12 flight tests show the performance superiority of this new method to compare with the RS code only.

In this paper, a modified PTS(Partial Transmit Sequences) technique that uses erasure decoding of RS (Reed-Solomon) codes is presented. At the transmitter, some check symbols in a RS codeword partitioned into subblocks are phase-rotated by phase factors. The receiver decodes received codewords by regarding the phase-rotated check symbols as erasures. Hence, this technique does not need to transmit the side information about the phase factors chosen at the transmitter. The complexity of the receiver is also reduced since the estimation process for the phase factors is not required in the receiver. There is no performance degradation due to the transmission error of the side information or the estimation error of the phase factors. To evaluate the performance of the proposed PTS technique, the CCDF(Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function) of PAPR and the BER(Bit Error Rate) are compared with those of the conventional PTS techniques.

In this paper, a variable Reed-Solomon(RS) decoder with erasure decoding functionality is designed based on the modified Euclid's algorithm(MEA). The variability of the decoder is implemented through shortening and puncturing based on the RS(124, 108, 8) code, other than the primitive RS(255, 239, 8) code. This leads to shortening the decoding latency. The decoder performs 4-step pipelined operation, where each step is designed to be clocked by an independent clock. Thus by using a faster clock for the MEA block, the complexity and the decoding latency can be reduced. It can support both continuous- and burst-mode decoding. It has been designed in VHDL and synthesized in an FPGA chip, consuming 3,717 logic cells and 2,048-bit memories. The maximum decoding throughput is 33 MByte/sec.

In this study, the bit error rate(BER) performance for the speech and data traffic is evaluated by results of the reverse link simulation of CDMA-based IMT-2000. Simulations in the reverse link are achieved for indoor, pedestrian, and vehicular environments, which are provided by ITU-R . Also, in the these simulations, the fast power control of 1.6kHz rate is applied. The amplitude and phase of the fading signal are estimated by using the 5-tap FIR filter, and the soft-decision Viterbi and Reed-Solomon (RS) decoding are applied. Simulation results provide the optimum ratio of pilot power to traffic power, the BER performance according to the number of fingers, and performance comparison between convolutional code and concatenated code at $10^-6$ BER in 5 MHz system.

We present the Multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing ultra-wideband (MB-OFDM UWB) technology for increasing the transmission reach of wireless speaker systems. The proposed scheme adopts the Reed-Solomon coding for preventing the random error perfectly and shows the SNR gain in low bit error rate (BER) especially. So, we can increase the maximum reach of MB-OFDM UWB technology since the receiver sensitivity is improved. The simulation environment includes most effects of realistic channel environments such as Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN), CM1 channel model, Sampling frequency offset (SFO), Carrier frequency offset (CFO) to improve the simulation accuracy. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme can give a maximum 2 dB SNR gain and increase the transmission reach up to 12.6m.

In this paper, the performances of wireless asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) cell transmission in mobile work are analyzed. We adopt 16Star QAM as amodulation technique in wireless channel and considered Reed-Solomon, convolutional, and concatenated coding to improve the error rate performances, and also proposed the Partial Concatenated Coding (PCC) technique as UEP(unequal error protection) code for efficient transmission of ATM cell in the air interface. We consider Doppler's effect, Rician fading, and diversity technique of maximal-ratio combining (MRC) for mobile channel model. For performance measure, we analyze bit error rate, ATM cell loss probability, ATM cell error probability, and network performances of ATM cell transmission delay and throughput. The numerical results show that the adoption of PCC is a prospective way for the evolution of future wireless ATM network on mobile environment.

In view of the severe energy constraint in sensor networks, it is important to use the error control scheme of the energy efficiently. In this paper, we presented FEC (Forward Error Correcting) codes in terms of their power consumption. One method of FEC is RS (Reed-Solomon) coding, which uses block codes. RS codes work by adding extra redundancy to the data. The encoded data can be stored or transmitted. It could have errors introduced, when the encoded data is recovered. The added redundancy allows a decoder to detect which parts of the received data is corrupted, and corrects them. The number of errors which are able to be corrected by RS code can determine by added redundancy. We could predict the lifetime of RS codes which transmitted at 32 byte a 1 minutes. RS(15, 13), RS(31, 27), RS(63, 57), RS(127,115), and RS(255,239) can keep the days of 138, 132, 126, 111, and 103 respectively.

In this paper, a free space optical communication device that can be used in a mobile base station of several km or less was fabricated and its characteristics were investigated. To overcome the loss due to atmospheric transmission, an optical fiber amplifier (EDFA) with an output of 23 dBm or more was used. In order to increase the focusing speed and miniaturization of the laser beam, an optical lens was manufactured, and a transmission lens was designed to have beam divergence within the range of 1.5 to 1.8 [mrad]. A PT module that controls PAN/TILT was fabricated in order to reduce pointing errors and effective automatic alignment between transceiver devices. In this study, Reed-Solomon (RS) code was used to maintain the transmission quality above a certain level. It was manufactured to be able to communicate at a wireless distance of 300m in a weather situation with visibility of 300m. For performance measurement, it was measured using BERT and eye pattern analyzer, and it was confirmed that BER can be maintained at 2.5Gbps.

In this paper, the high-speed decoder for RS(Reed-Solomon) code, one of the most popular error correcting code, is implemented using VHDL. This RS decoder is designed in transform domain instead of most time domain. Because of the simplicity in structure, transform decoder can be easily realized VLSI chip. Additionally the pipeline architecture, which is similar to a systolic array is applied for all design. Therefore, This transform RS decoder is suitable for high-rate data transfer. After synthesis with FPGA technology, the decoding rate is more 43 Mbytes/s and the area is 1853 LCs(Logic Cells). To compare with other product with pipeline architecture, this result is admirable. Error correcting ability and pipeline performance is certified by computer simulation.

In this paper, we propose a new data encoding algorithm for a two-dimensional bar code system. In general, the one-dimensional bar code is just a key which can access detailed information to the host computer database. But the two-dimensional bar code is a new technology which can obtain high density information without access to the host computer database. We implemented the encoding algorithm for Data Matrix bar code which is the most widely used among the many kinds of two-dimensional bar codes in the field of marking using Digital Signal Processor (TMS320C31). The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified by comparing the imprinted symbols on the steel surfaces with the codes which are decoded by a bar code reader.
