Abstract

Abstract A high speed code processing system for error correcting code is disclosed. It uses bit parallel residue generation for cyclic codes. This minimizes the time delay for cyclic code processing. Residue generation of the bit string is accomplished by processing multiple bits in each clock time instead of the conventional bit-by-bit implementation. Thus, the checkword calculation and the syndrome calculation are accomplished at a significantly higher speed than the conventional shift register approach to provide a system capable of on-line residue generation.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 130 words
A high speed code processing system for error correcting code comprising: an encoding/decoding apparatus; clocking means connected to and operative upon said encoding/decoding apparatus; means for supplying a string of information bits I (x) to said encoding/decoding apparatus; means further associated with said encoding/decoding apparatus for enabling encoding/decoding said information in multiple bit segments during a single clock time of said clocking means whereby said encoding/decoding time is substantially reduced; said encoding/decoding apparatus including further means for producing and storing a plurality of check bits m; said multiple bit segment being equal to a number of bits w taken in parallel at each clock cycle to thereby reduce the number of clock cycles required for encoding/decoding by a factor w; and said bits w being equal to said bits m.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 130 words
A high speed code processing system for error correcting code comprising: an encoding/decoding apparatus; clocking means connected to and operative upon said encoding/decoding apparatus; means for supplying a string of information bits I (x) to said encoding/decoding apparatus; means further associated with said encoding/decoding apparatus for enabling encoding/decoding said information in multiple bit segments during a single clock time of said clocking means whereby said encoding/decoding time is substantially reduced; said encoding/decoding apparatus including further means for producing and storing a plurality of check bits m; said multiple bit segment being equal to a number of bits w taken in parallel at each clock cycle to thereby reduce the number of clock cycles required for encoding/decoding by a factor w; and said bits w being equal to said bits m.
