Instruments and Systems: Monitoring, Control, and Diagnostics Annotation << Back Software implementation research of cyclic error-correcting codes decoders for burst errors with resources deficiency E.A. MYTSKO, A.N. MALCHUKOV, S.D. IVANOV The paper presents software implementations on microcontrollers of methods for decoding cyclic error-correcting codes for burst errors. The task was set to provide the integrity and reliability of the transferred commands to the Tokamak KTM synchronization system. The schemes of the algorithm for encoding information as well as schemes of software implementations of the table and cyclic decoding solution were presented. The experiment on the microcontroller for decoding cyclic error-correcting code (15,8,3) for burst errors with length up to 3 bits using table and cyclic methods resulted in recommendations on the implementation of using methods to ensure the integrity of the transferred commands. It is established that if there is available memory of 128 bytes for storing error patterns the table decoding method is the most acceptable for implementation on microcontrollers. Implementation of cyclic decoding method with the verification of the distance between units is suitable when it is not possible to store the pre-computed values in the PROM memory. Keywords: cyclic method, table method, error-correcting code, decoder, burst errors, microcontroller, error correction, software implementation.
