Block
Description
The Integer-Output RS Decoder HDL Optimized block decodes data using RS decoder. The RS decoding follows the same standards as any other cyclic redundancy code. Use this block to model communications system forward error correction (FEC) codes. The block provides an architecture suitable for HDL code generation and hardware deployment.
For more information about the RS decoder, see the Integer-Output RS Decoder block. For more information on representing data for RS codes, see Integer Format (Reed-Solomon Only).
Examples
Using HDL Optimized RS Encoder/Decoder Library Blocks
Implement encoder and decoder for the IEEE® 802.16 standard [ 1 ] using the HDL Optimized Reed-Solomon (RS) Encoder and Decoder library blocks.
Ports
Input
dataIn — Input data
scalar
Input data, specified as a scalar representing one symbol. For binary point
scaling, the input data type must be an unsigned integer or an unsigned fixed point.
The double
data type is allowed for simulation, but not for HDL
code generation.
Data Types: double
| uint8
| uint16
| uint32
| uint64
| fixed point
startIn — Start of input frame indicator
scalar
Start of input frame indicator, specified as a Boolean scalar.
Data Types: Boolean
endIn — End of input frame indicator
scalar
End of input frame indicator, specified as a Boolean scalar.
Data Types: Boolean
validIn — Valid input data indicator
scalar
Valid input data indicator, specified as a Boolean scalar.
This is a control signal that indicates if the data on the dataIn port is valid.
Data Types: Boolean
Output
dataOut — Decoded message data
scalar
Decoded message data, returned as a scalar. This output data width is the same as the input data width.
Data Types: double
| uint8
| uint16
| uint32
| uint64
| fixed point
startOut — Start of output frame indicator
scalar
Start of output frame indicator, returned as a Boolean scalar.
Data Types: Boolean
endOut — End of output frame indicator
scalar
End of output frame indicator, returned as a Boolean scalar.
Data Types: Boolean
validOut — Valid output data indicator
scalar
Valid output data indicator, returned as a Boolean scalar.
This is a control signal that indicates if the data on the dataOut port is valid.
Data Types: Boolean
errOut — Indications of corruption of received data
scalar
Indications of corruption of the received data, returned as a Boolean scalar.
When this value is 1
(true
) , the output
contains at least one error. When this value is 0
(false
), the output contains zero errors.
If the number of errors in the input codeword is greater than (Codeword
length – Message length)/2
, the
block outputs data without correcting the errors and sets the
errOut port to 1
(true
)
to indicate that errors that cannot be corrected exist in the input codeword.
Data Types: Boolean
numErrors — Number of corrected errors
nonnegative scalar
Number of corrected errors, returned as a nonnegative scalar.
The maximum number of errors an RS code can correct is equal to
(Codeword length – Message length)/2. If
the number of errors in the input codeword is greater than (Codeword
length – Message length)/2, the block outputs data
without correcting the errors and sets the numErrors port to
0
to indicate that none of those errors can be corrected.
Dependencies
To enable this port, select the Output number of corrected symbol errors parameter.
Data Types: uint8
Parameters
Codeword length — Length of codeword

roots of the primitive polynomial parameter to

(default) | on
Select this parameter to enable the numErrors output port. This port outputs the number of corrected errors.
Algorithms
This figure shows a sample output of the Integer-Output RS Decoder HDL Optimized block with a default configuration.
Points to Consider
Each input frame must contain symbols less than or equal to Codeword length. A shortened code is inferred when the number of valid data samples between startIn and endIn is less than Codeword length.
To get a proper output for two sequential input frames, the gap between the frames must be greater than the sum of the block latency and the Message length.
The generator polynomial is not specified explicitly. However, it is defined by the Codeword length, Message length, and the B value for the starting exponent of the roots.
Performance
The performance of the synthesized HDL code varies with the target and synthesis options. It also varies based on the input data type.
This table shows the resource and performance data synthesis results when you provide an
input data type of uint8
, specify the Code length
parameter as 255
, and Message length parameter as
223
. The generated HDL is targeted to the AMD®
Zynq®- 7000 ZC706 evaluation board. The design
achieves a clock frequency of 58.09 MHz.
