Abstract :
The Reed Solomon code (RS code) has been widely employed in digital audio/video equipment owing to its excellent capability for correcting burst errors and relatively easy implementation. The authors propose an architecture for an error correction circuit suitable for high-rate data decoding of the Reed-Solomon code. The circuit has encoder and decoder functions by 2 symbol random error correction as well as 4 symbol erasure correction. 23 Mbyte/s rate of data decoding is sufficient for compressed video signals of high-definition as well as those of standard-definition TVs
