  • Abstract
    In a recent experimental project, a long, high rate Reed-Solomon error correction codec was developed and integrated into a satellite TDMA system. Although the coding overhead was only about 6%, a dramatic error rate improvement was achieved for channel error rates less than 5×10-4. This paper describes the design and implementation of the codec, its integration into a TDMA format, and the results of the experimental testing.
