Error correcting codes는 일반적으로 soft error를 막기 위해서 사용된다. single error의 수정과 double error의 검출(SEC-DED) 코드들은 이런 목적으로 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 회로의 크기, 지연시간, 전력 소비를 선택적으로 최소로 하는 SEC-DED의 설계방법을 제안한다. 이러한 SEC-DED의 설계는 비선형 최적화 문제로 포함되는데 우리는 다목적 유전자 알고리즘을 이용하여 이 문제를 해결한다. 제안하는 방법은 여러 가지 SEC-DED code들을 제공하여 사용자의 환경에 따라 알맞은 회로를 선택할 수 있도록 한다. 제안하는 방법을 효율적인 ECC코드로 알려져 있는 odd-column weight Hsiao code에 적용하여 그 효율성을 입증하였다.

저전력 환경에서의 메모리 집적도가 증가함에 따라 메모리는 soft error에 매우 민감해졌다. 오류 정정 코드는 일반적으로 양산 이후 메모리의 soft error를 수정하기 위해서 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 새로운 저전력 오류 정정 코드의 설계방법을 제안한다. 오류 정정 코드의 전력소비는 parity check 행렬의 선택을 통해 최소화 될 수 있다. 따라서 오류 정정 코드의 설계는 비선형 최적화 문제로 포함되는데 우리는 다양한 유전 연산자를 포함하는 유전자 알고리즘을 이용하여 이 문제를 해결한다. 제안하는 방법을 Hamming code와 Hsiao code에 적용하여 그 효율성을 입증하였다.

New decoding algorithm of double-error-correction Reed-Solmon codes over GF(2$^{8}$) for optical compact disks is proposed and decoding algorithm of RS codes with triple-error-correcting capability is presented in this paper. First of all. efficient algorithms for estimating the number of errors in the received code words are presented. The most complex circuits in the RS decoder are parts for soving the error-location numbers from error-location polynomial, so the complexity of those circuits has a great influence on overall decoder complexity. One of the most known algorithm for searching the error-location number is Chien's method, in which all the elements of GF(2$^{m}$) are substituted into the error-location polynomial and the error-location number can be found as the elements satisfying the error-location polynomial. But Chien's scheme needs another 1 frame delay in the decoder, which reduces decoding speed as well as require more stroage circuits for the received ocode symbols. The ther is Polkinghorn method, in which the roots can be resolved directly by solving the error-location polynomial. Bur this method needs additional ROM (readonly memory) for storing tthe roots of the all possible coefficients of error-location polynomial or much more complex cicuit. Simple, efficient, and high speed method for solving the error-location number and decoding algorithm of double-error correction RS codes which reudce considerably the complexity of decoder are proposed by using Hilbert theorems in this paper. And the performance of the proposed decoding algorithm is compared with that of conventional decoding algorithms. As a result of comparison, the proposed decoding algorithm is superior to the conventional decoding algorithm with respect to decoding delay and decoder complexity. And decoding algorithm of RS codes with triple-error-correcting capability is presented, which is suitable for error-correction in digital audio tape, also.

In this paper, a new design for an error correcting code (ECC) is proposed. The design is aimed to build an ECC circuitry with minimal power consumption. The genetic algorithm equipped with the symbiotic mechanism is used to design a power-efficient ECC which provides single-error correction and double-error detection (SEC-DED). We formulate the selection of the parity check matrix into a collection of individual and specialized optimization problems and propose a symbiotic evolution method to search for an ECC with minimal power consumption. Finally, we conduct simulations to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper presents a low-complexity triple-error-correcting parallel Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) decoder architecture and its efficient design techniques. A novel modified step-by-step (m-SBS) decoding algorithm, which significantly reduces computational complexity, is proposed for the parallel BCH decoder. In addition, a determinant calculator and a error locator are proposed to reduce hardware complexity. Specifically, a sharing syndrome factor calculator and a self-error detection scheme are proposed. The multi-channel multi-parallel BCH decoder using the proposed m-SBS algorithm and design techniques have considerably less hardware complexity and latency than those using a conventional algorithms. For a 16-channel 4-parallel (1020, 990) BCH decoder over GF($2^{12}$), the proposed design can lead to a reduction in complexity of at least 23 % compared to conventional architecttures.

본 논문에서는 고밀도 광 기록 저장 시스템을 위하여 두 가지 새로운 에러 정정 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 첫 번째 알고리즘(New Code IV)는 랜덤 에러에 대한 민감성을 감소시켜서 잘못된 이레이져 선언을 줄이고 코드율을 증가시켰다. 두 번째 알고리즘(New Code V)는 이레이져 선언을 위한 정보 데이터와 독립적인 Indicator flag(IF)를 사용하였다. 실험 결과 제안한 두 포맷은 기존 코드와 비교해 비슷한 코드율로 다양한 에러 분포 환경에서 보다 우수한 에러 정정 능력을 가진다.

The use of serial concatenated codes is an effective technique for alleviating the error floor phenomenon of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. An enhanced sum-product algorithm (SPA) for LDPC codes, which is suitable for serial concatenated codes, is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm minimizes the number of errors by using the failed check nodes (FCNs) in LDPC decoding. Hence, the error-correcting capability of the serial concatenated code can be improved. The number of FCNs is simply obtained by the syndrome test, which is performed during the SPA. Hence, the decoding procedure of the proposed algorithm is similar to that of the conventional algorithm. The error performance of the proposed algorithm is analyzed and compared with that of the conventional algorithm. As a result, a gain of 1.4 dB can be obtained by the proposed algorithm at a bit error rate of $10^{-8}$. In addition, the error performance of the proposed algorithm with just 30 iterations is shown to be superior to that of the conventional algorithm with 100 iterations.

In this paper, we propose a robust blind watermarking scheme for high-definition video. In the embedding process, luminance component of each frame is transformed by 2-dimensional fast Fourier transform (2D FFT). A secret key is used to generate a matrix of random numbers for the security of watermark information. The matrix is transformed by inverse steerable pyramid transform (SPT). We embed the watermark into the low and mid-frequency of 2D FFT coefficients with the transformed matrix. In the extraction process, the 2D FFT coefficients of each frame and the transformed matrix are transformed by SPT respectively, to produce two oriented sub-bands. We extract the watermark from each frame by cross-correlating two oriented sub-bands. If a video is degraded by some attacks, the watermarks of frames contain some errors. Thus, we use an ensemble position-based error correcting algorithm to estimate the errors and correct them. The experimental results show that the proposed watermarking algorithm is imperceptible and moreover is robust against various attacks. After embedding 64 bits of watermark into each frame, the average peak signal-to-noise ratio between original frames and embedded frames is 45.7 dB.

Normally, in data transmission, extra parity bits are added to the input message which were derived from its input and a pre-defined algorithm. The same algorithm is used by the receiver to check the consistency of the delivered information, to determine if it is corrupted or not. It recovers and compares the received information, to provide matching and correcting the corrupted transmitted bits if there is any. This paper aims the following objectives: to use an alternative error detection-correction method, to lessens both the fixed number of the required redundancy bits 'r' in cyclic redundancy checking (CRC) because of the required polynomial generator and the overhead of interspersing the r in Hamming code. The experimental results were synthesized using Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA and showed a significant increase in both the transmission rate and detection of random errors. Moreover, this proposal can be a better option for detecting and correcting errors.
