A high-speed Reed-Solomon decoder for correction of both errors and erasures

Zhaohui Cai, Jianzhong Hao, Sumei Sun, Francois Po Shin Chin · 2006

This paper presents the design of a (n,k) Reed-Solomon decoder for both errors and erasures. The key-equation solver is based on Sarwate's reformulated inversionless Berlekamp-Massey algorithm. The decoder has been implemented on FPGA and the maximum clock frequency can be 150 MHz for a (255, 239) code on a Xilinx Virtex-II device.
