Abstract :
The letter discusses simple techniques for the implementation of fault detection in residue number system (RNS) arithmetic modules used in systolic arrays. The technique centres around a recently developed linear systolic structure, and does not require a redundant residue system for the detection process. It is shown that this structure can be used as the detection process in a fault-correcting RNS system.
