Single-burst-correction / double-burst-detection error code

摘要

A method and apparatus for performing encoding and decoding of bit chain data packets conveying errors which do not spread on more than n bits, at very high speed. In one embodiment, a matrix of the corresponding Systematic code is built using pxp matrix blocks comprising elements of a galois field, generated by an irreducible generator polynomial of degree p, p being greater or equal to n.
