Construction of a Decoder for an Algebraic Geometry Code

该计划的目标是通过为实现这一系列中较短的代码之一奠定基础，从而启动一种新的、功能非常强大的纠错码系列(即来自厄米曲线的代数几何代码)的开发。开发一种用于早期商业化的短期产品预计将有利于更广泛地利用这一系列代码的长期目标。正在充分详细地定义解码器结构，以允许对解码器硬件进行预设计，以准备第二阶段硬件可行性论证计划。解码算法的计算机模拟也在开发中。

The objective of this program is to initiate the development of a new and very powerful family of error correcting codes (i.e. algebraic geometry codes from Hermitian curves), by laying the groundwork for the implementation of one of the shorter codes from this family. Development of a near-term product for early commercialization is expected to benefit the longer term goal of more broadly exploiting this family of codes. The decoder structure is being defined in sufficient detail to allow pre-design of the decoder hardware in preparation for a Phase II hardware feasibility demonstration program. A computer simulation of the decoding algorithm is also being developed.
