Abstract
In one embodiment, a method for decoding data includes iteratively C1 decoding all first subsets of a set of data two or more times in each half iteration using two or more C1-decoding methods when a first subset is not decoded successfully using a first C1 decoding, determining whether to stop decoding the set of data after the C1 decoding and output results of the C1 decoding, incrementing a half iteration counter to indicate completion of a half iteration in response to decoding not being stopped, C2 decoding all second subsets of the set of data, determining whether to stop decoding the set of data after the C2 decoding and output results of the C2 decoding, incrementing the half iteration counter to indicate completion of another half iteration in response to decoding not being stopped, and outputting decoded data when all subsets of the set of data are decoded successfully.
