  • Abstract
    In this letter, the reliability-based decoding algorithms developed for binary linear codes are investigated for SDD of Reed-Solomon (RS) codes using their binary images. It is shown that if such approaches are promising, they also have to be carefully considered as their behavior at error rates which can be simulated often differ from that at lower error rates for which RS codes have been implemented in concatenated schemes.
