Abstract :
A novel pipelined recursive modified Euclidean (ME) algorithm block for the low-complexity, high-speed Reed-Solomon (RS) decoder is presented. The deeply pipelined recursive structure enables implementation of a significantly low-complexity ME algorithm block with much improved clock frequency. The low-complexity, high-speed RS decoder using the pipelined recursive ME algorithm block has been implemented in 0.13 μm CMOS technology with a supply voltage of 1.1 V. The results show that it has significantly low hardware complexity and a high data processing rate of 6.16 Gbit/s.
