Summary

Reed-Solomon (RS) codes are some of the oldest error detection and correction codes. However, they are widely used today in various applications, including communications and storage systems. In this work, we study their structure and their conventional encoding and decoding. Furthermore, we implement a novel burst error correction algorithm for RS codes. As a prerequisite for this work, we first present a short introduction to Galois Fields and the Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) codes, a family of codes which are closely related to RS codes.
