A VLSI Reed-Solomon Decoder Architecture for Concatenate-Coded Space and Spread Spectrum Communications
K. Y. Liu · 1983
In this paper, a VLSI Reed-Solomon (RS) decoder architecture for concatenate-coded space and spread spectrum communications, is presented. The known decoding procedures for RS codes are exploited and modified to obtain a repetitive and recursive decoding technique which is suitable for VLSI implementation and pipeline processing.
