test and verify the Reed-Solomon codec. Each of these steps is important, and missing one results in developing hardware that does not work the first time and must be re-created. For example, it is ...

FEC (forward-error-correction) techniques correct errors at the receiver end of digital communications systems. In contrast with error-detection and retransmission ...

Abstract: Ordered statistics decoding (OSD) is a universal decoding algorithm for short-length linear block codes that approaches maximum likelihood decoding when run at sufficiently high order.

Congress took steps on Wednesday toward blocking changes to D.C.’s local tax code, even as District officials warned it could wreak havoc on tax season and smash a hole in the city’s budget. The House ...

WASHINGTON (DC News Now) — District leaders said an effort by Congress to block a portion of the D.C. local tax code will upend tax filing season. “It’s chaotic and unnecessary,” Ward 5 councilmember ...

Abstract: In this paper, we propose a two-stage soft-decision decoding (SDD) algorithm for BCH codes. At the first stage, we search for test error patterns (TEPs ...
