Abstract

Abstract: Forward Error Correcting (FEC) is a technique employed to enhance data security & reliability. An efficient coding technique is essential to ensure data security. Reed Solomon Codes are widely used to provide error correction capability against burst error. This paper presents the design & FPGA implementation of RS (7, 3) codes. The design is entirely parameterized and can be scaled readily for a wide range of a number of message symbols. Keywords: FEC, Galois field, Reed Solomon codes, RS encoder, RS decoderCite this ArticleSaurabh Singh, Mohan Khambalkar, Ankur Varma. FPGA Implementation of Reed Solomon Encoder and Decoder.
