CONVOLUTION-ENCODED HYPER-SPEED CHANNEL WITH ROBUST TRELLIS ERROR-CORRECTION

摘要

A method, system, and computer program product for performing robust, parallel data transfer by a processor device. Data is segmented into k-bit segments, where k≧1. The k-bit segments are convolution encoded, using m≧1 stages of delay. The n output streams are transmitted in parallel for increased effective data rate, where n>k. The n output streams are received. The n output streams are exclusive-or'ed with pathing allowed by the convolution encoding, in a trellis-decoding diagram. Error-corrected data is identified as an overall path in the trellis-decoding diagram with zero Hamming radius.

1. A method for performing robust, parallel data transfer by a processor device, comprising:
segmenting data into k-bit segments, where k≧1; convolution encoding the k-bit segments, using m≧1 stages of delay; transmitting n output streams in parallel for increased effective data rate, where n>k; receiving the n output streams; exclusive-or'ing the n output streams with pathing allowed by the convolution encoding, in a trellis-decoding diagram; and identifying error-corrected data as an overall path with zero Hamming radius.
