In this paper, an efficient architecture of a versatile Reed-Solomon (RS) decoder is designed, where the message length k as well as the block length n can be variable. The decoder permits 3-step pipelined processing based on the modified Euclid's algorithm(MEA). A new architecture for the MEA is designed for variable values of error correcting capability t. To maintain the throughput rate with less circuitry, the MEA block uses both the recursive and the overclocking technique. The decoder can decode a codeword received not only in a burst mode, but also in a continuous mode. It can be used in a wide range of applications due to its versatility. A versatile RS decoder over GF(2$^{8}$ ) having the error-correcting capability of up to 10 has been designed in VHDL, and successfully synthesized in an FPGA chip.

Transform image coding using DCT is proved to be efficient in the absence of channel error but its performance degrades rapidly over noisy channel. In this paper, in the case of appling bit selcetive error correction coding that protects some significant bits in a codeword, an efficient allocation method of imformation bits and additive redundancy bits used for quantization and error correction coding respectively under constant transmission bit rate is proposed, and its performance is analyzed. As a result, without increasing trasmission bit rate, PSNR can be improved up to 7~8 [dB] below bit error rate $10^2$ and the image without blocking effect caused by bit error resulted from channel noise can be recostructed.

Messages are generally selected with the same probability in the encoding scheme of rateless codes for equal error protection. In addition, a belief propagation (BP) decoding scheme is generally used because of the low computational complexity. However, the probability of recovering a new message by BP decoding is reduced if both the recovered and unrecovered messages are selected uniformly. Thus, more codeword symbols than expected are required for the perfect recovery of message symbols. Therefore, a new encoding scheme with a nonuniform selection of messages is proposed in this paper. In addition, a BP-Gaussian elimination hybrid decoding scheme that complements the drawback of the BP decoding scheme is proposed. The performances of the proposed schemes are analyzed and compared with those of the conventional schemes.

본 논문에서는 DC 억압능력이 없거나 부족한 코드에 만족할 만한 DC 억압능력을 갖도록 하기 위한 멀티모드코드 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 멀티모드코드는 데이터열의 다중화를 위해 Pseudo Scrambling Technique를 사용하며, 다중화 된 데이터열의 변조를 위해 DC-free RLL(d, k) Code를 사용하는 특징을 가진다. 제안한 방법에서는 Sync 코드워드의 패리티를 다중화 정보로 사용하여 입력데이터를 2개의 데이터 열로 다중화하고, 2개로 다중화 된 데이터 열에 대해 DC-free RLL(d, k) Code를 사용하여 코드워드로 변환하며, 코드워드로 변환된 2 개의 코드워드 열에 대해 DC 성분이 적은 코드워드 열 하나를 선택하여 변조 스트림으로 출력한다. 본 논문에서는 Sync 코드워드의 패리티를 다중화 정보로 사용하여 별도의 Redundancy를 부가하지 않고 DC 억압성능을 향상시킬 수 있었다.

We consider a design of a combined quantizer and estimator for distributed systems wherein each node quantizes its measurement without any communication among the nodes and transmits it to a fusion node for estimation. Noting that the quantization partitions minimizing the estimation error are not independently encoded at nodes, we focus on the parameter regions created by the partitions and propose a cluster-based quantization algorithm that iteratively finds a given number of clusters of parameter regions with each region being closer to the corresponding codeword than to the other codewords. We introduce a new metric to determine the distance between codewords and parameter regions. We also discuss that the fusion node can perform an efficient estimation by finding the intersection of the clusters sent from the nodes. We demonstrate through experiments that the proposed design achieves a significant performance gain with a low complexity as compared to the previous designs.

This paper is designed and implemented the data recovery mechanism for 2-D (2-dimensional) bar code system. The data recovery algorithm used the modified Reed-Solomon algorithm and it is implemented into 2-D bar code system. There are 7 types of 2-D bar code system, which are 21x21, 25x25, 41x41, 73x73, 101x101, 177x177. This paper has been experimented that how many data is saved among several 2-D bar code types and how many data re recovered. In the first experiment, the big size 2-D bar code system has many ECC codeword. Therefore, original data cannot be assigned to 2-D bar code system. In the second experiment, even if 35∼40% loss dta for the 2-D bar code system, the 2-D bar code system could have been recovered to original data.

본 논문에서는 선형 블록 부호에 대한 효율적인 연판정 복호법을 제안하였다. 제안된 연판정 복호법은 연판정 복호 과정을 반복하여 실현하는 방식이다. 경판정 복호 결과로부터 후보 부호버들을 효율적으로 탐색할 수 있는 방법을 개발하였다. 이 과정에서 후보 부호어가 선출되지 않는 경우의 발생을 억제할 수 있는 새로운 복호법을 제안하였다. 또한, 복잡도를 줄이는 방안도 개발하여 알고리듬 개선으로 인한 복잡도 증가가 거의 나타나지 않도록 하였다. 2진(63, 36) BCH 부호에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과로 이러한 사실들을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 벡터 양자화(VQ)의 탐색 복잡도를 줄이기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 본 방법의 현재 부호화하려는 벡터의 특성을 효율적으로 이용함으로써 고속 탐색 효과를 가져온다. 벡터 크기가 16인 제안하는 VQ방식으로써 약 0.1-1.9dB의 미소한 성능 감소로 1/8-1/16의 복잡도 감소를 꾀할 수 있음을 보인다. 동시에 기존의 방식과 비교하여 더 성능이 우수함을 보인다.

Energy savings in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems is an active research area. In order to achieve a solution, we propose a new cooperative relaying scheme operated on a per subcarrier basis. This scheme improves the bit error rate (BER) performance of the conventional signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)-based selection relaying scheme by substituting SNR with symbol error probability (SEP) to evaluate the received signal quality at the relay more reliably. Since the cooperative relaying provides spatial diversity gain for each subcarrier, thus statistically enhancing the reliability of subcarriers at the destination, the total number of lost subcarriers due to deep fading is reduced. In other words, cooperative relaying can alleviate error symbols in a codeword so that the error correction capability of forward error correction codes can be fully exploited to improve the BER performance (or save transmission energy at a target BER). Monte-Carlo simulations validate the proposed approach.

In this paper we present a barcode reader to decode two-dimensional symbology PDF-417 and propose a novel method to extract the bar-space patterns directly from the gray-level barcode image, which employs the location and the distance between extreme points of each row of the barcode image. This algorithm proves to be very robust from the high convolution distortion environments such as defocussing and warping, even under badly illuminating condition. If the scanned barcode image is a result of the convolution of a Gaussian-shaped point spread function with a bi-level image, popular image segmentation methods such as image thresholding can not distinguish between very narrow bar-space patterns with a couple of pixels wide. The proposed algorithm shows improved performance over current barcode readers.
