Efficient list-decoding of Reed-Solomon codes with the Fundamental Iterative Algorithm
Alexander Zeh, Christian Gentner, Martin Bossert · 2009
In this paper we propose a new algorithm that solves the Guruswami-Sudan interpolation step for Reed-Solomon codes efficiently. It is a generalization of the Feng-Tzeng approach, the so-called fundamental iterative algorithm. From the interpolation constraints of the Guruswami-Sudan principle it is well known that an improvement of the decoding radius can only be achieved, if the multiplicity parameter s is smaller than the list size l. The code length is n and our proposed algorithm has a complexity (without asymptotic assumptions) of O(ls4n2).
