With this demonstrator we present a new reuse based design methodology for the development of FEC (Forward Error Correction) applications for reconfigurable SoC (System-on-Chip) architectures. This approach enables the reuse of well tested and optimized RS-(Reed-Solomon) codec modules consisting of both HW and SW. Specific RS codec modules can be generated by generator tools. In order to automate the reuse process for dynamically reconfigurable SoCs, the generator tool supports the generation of design modules, interfaces and design flows. We examined our design methodology and RS codec modules within the SFB-358 demonstrator.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
