In the following article, Tony Chan-Carusone explores the critical role of Forward Error Correction (FEC) in high-speed wireline networking, particularly with the adoption of PAM4 modulation for ...
Reed-Solomon coding is a type of forward-error correction that is used in data-transmission (vulnerable to channel noise) plus data-storage and -retrieval systems.
The most famous examples of locally correctable codes are versions of a venerable error-correcting code invented in 1954 by the mathematicians David Muller and Irving Reed (who also helped develop ...
Why a Reed-Solomon Forward Correction Error in the Ethernet PHY can help limit area and power.
There are a number of both type of codes. The almost de facto standard for block codes is Reed-Solomon (RS) developed by Irving S. Reed and Gustave Solomon in 1960.
Error Correcting Code (ECC) technology, such as Low-Density Parity Check codes, has been around longer than most of you reading this have been alive.
In addition to communications, the KV algorithm could be used to improve the performance of CD players and the many computer hard drives that use Reed-Solomon encoding. It will be interesting to see ...
Reed-Solomon error correction has several applications in broadcasting, in particular forming part of the specification for the ETSI digital terrestrial television standard, known as DVB-T.
