Self-checking properties of residue number error checkers based on mixed radix conversion
W.K. Jenkins, Edward J. Altman · IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems · 1988
It has been shown previously that a mixed-radix converter can be modified to perform all the essential functions of an error checker for error detection and correction in residue number system hardware architectures. Since the computations in a mixed-radix converter are themselves done in residue arithmetic, error checking by means of mixed-radix conversion also checks for errors that occur in the hardware of the mixed-radix converter. The potentially useful properties of this self-checking error checker are examined.>
