Multiple-Symbol Interleaved RS Codes and Two-Pass Decoding Algorithm
For communication systems with heavy burst noise, an optimal Forward Error
Correction (FEC) scheme is expected to have a large burst error correction
capacity while simultaneously owning moderate random error correction
capability. This letter presents a new FEC scheme based on multiple-symbol
interleaved Reed-Solomon codes and an associated two-pass decoding algorithm.
It is shown that the proposed multi-symbol interleaved coding scheme can
achieve nearly twice as much as the burst error correction capability of
conventional symbol-interleaved Reed-Solomon codes with the same code length
and code rate
