/* * File: bch3.c * Title: Encoder/decoder for binary BCH codes in C (Version 3.1) * Author: Robert Morelos-Zaragoza * Date: August 1994 * Revised: June 13, 1997 * * =============== Encoder/Decoder for binary BCH codes in C ================= * * Version 1: Original program. The user provides the generator polynomial * of the code (cumbersome!). * Version 2: Computes the generator polynomial of the code. * Version 3: No need to input the coefficients of a primitive polynomial of * degree m, used to construct the Galois Field GF(2**m). The * program now works for any binary BCH code of length such that: * 2**(m-1) - 1 < length <= 2**m - 1 * * Note: You may have to change the size of the arrays to make it work. * * The encoding and decoding methods used in this program are based on the * book "Error Control Coding: Fundamentals and Applications", by Lin and * Costello, Prentice Hall, 1983. * * Thanks to Patrick Boyle (pboyle@era.com) for his observation that 'bch2.c' * did not work for lengths other than 2**m-1 which led to this new version. * Portions of this program are from 'rs.c', a Reed-Solomon encoder/decoder * in C, written by Simon Rockliff (simon@augean.ua.oz.au) on 21/9/89. The * previous version of the BCH encoder/decoder in C, 'bch2.c', was written by * Robert Morelos-Zaragoza (robert@spectra.eng.hawaii.edu) on 5/19/92. * * NOTE: * The author is not responsible for any malfunctioning of * this program, nor for any damage caused by it. Please include the * original program along with these comments in any redistribution. * * For more information, suggestions, or other ideas on implementing error * correcting codes, please contact me at: * * Robert Morelos-Zaragoza * 5120 Woodway, Suite 7036 * Houston, Texas 77056 * * email: r.morelos-zaragoza@ieee.org * * COPYRIGHT NOTICE: This computer program is free for non-commercial purposes. * You may implement this program for any non-commercial application.
