Title :
New List Decoding Algorithms for Reed–Solomon and BCH Codes
Abstract :
In this paper, we devise a rational curve fitting algorithm and apply it to the list decoding of Reed-Solomon and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghen (BCH) codes. The resulting list decoding algorithms exhibit the following significant properties.
