The QR code, Ver 3 (29×29) uses interleaved blocks. The message has 26 data bytes and is encoded using two Reed-Solomon code blocks. Each block is a (255,233) Reed Solomon code shortened to a (35,13) code. The Delsarte–Goethals–Seidel [12] theorem illustrates an example of an application of shortened Reed–Solomon codes.
There are many types of block codes; Reed–Solomon coding is noteworthy for its widespread use in compact discs, DVDs, and hard disk drives. Other examples of classical block codes include Golay, BCH, Multidimensional parity, and Hamming codes. Hamming ECC is commonly used to correct NAND flash memory errors. [6]
Algebraic geometry codes are a generalization of Reed–Solomon codes. Constructed by Irving Reed and Gustave Solomon in 1960, Reed–Solomon codes use univariate polynomials to form codewords, by evaluating polynomials of sufficiently small degree at the points in a finite field. [8] Formally, Reed–Solomon codes are defined in the following way.
Block codes are processed on a block-by-block basis. Early examples of block codes are repetition codes, Hamming codes and multidimensional parity-check codes. They were followed by a number of efficient codes, Reed–Solomon codes being the most notable due to their current widespread use.
The most popular erasure codes are Reed-Solomon coding, Low-density parity-check code (LDPC codes), and Turbo codes. [ 1 ] As of 2023, modern data storage systems can be designed to tolerate the complete failure of a few disks without data loss, using one of 3 approaches: [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ]
For example: The Reed-Solomon code with LDPC Coded Modulation (RS-LCM) uses a Reed-Solomon outer code. [18] The DVB-S2, the DVB-T2 and the DVB-C2 standards all use a BCH code outer code to mop up residual errors after LDPC decoding. [19] 5G NR uses polar code for the control channels and LDPC for the data channels. [20] [21]
In a generalization of above concatenation, there are N possible inner codes C in,i and the i-th symbol in a codeword of C out is transmitted across the inner channel using the i-th inner code. The Justesen codes are examples of generalized concatenated codes, where the outer code is a Reed–Solomon code.
The BCH code over () and generator polynomial () with successive powers of as roots is one type of Reed–Solomon code where the decoder (syndromes) alphabet is the same as the channel (data and generator polynomial) alphabet, all elements of (). [6]
