Abstract :
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.
