  • Abstract
    In this paper, Fedorenko and Trifonov´s procedure is applied to evaluate the syndrome of the received word in time-domain Reed-Solomon decoders. This application leads to a substantial reduction of the computational complexity of the syndrome polynomial for correcting both errors and erasures. Moreover, simulation results for this new syndrome method are given.
