PERFORMANCE COMPARISON OF NEW DESIGNS OF CHIEN SEARCH AND SYNDROME BLOCKS FOR BCH AND REED SOLOMON CODES

Abstract

Error correcting codes constitute one of the core technologies in telecommunications field, especially digital communication applications. The objective of this paper is to compare performance among new designs of chien search block on the one hand and syndrome architectures on the other hand in error correcting codes. All comparison of all designs is made by computing the number of logic, bit error rate values and number of iteration in the case of syndrome architectures Analysis results show that the performances of the new designs based on both second factorization method and Three-Parallel Syndrome architecture are superior to the performances of traditional designs.
