Abstract
The present invention provides systems and methods for an efficient, parallel implementation of burst error correction codes, such as the Fire code. The present invention includes a FEC decoder which is pipelined to simultaneously perform syndrome computation, error trapping and syndrome normalization, and error correction. The pipelined implementation can apply to shortened and full-length codes. Advantageously, the present invention yields a design which is approximately 1/20the size of conventional parallel approaches.
