Thank you very much, Thanks a lot for the information. The link that was given is not working. Could you please check about it and give me the link again. Could you please cite some more references online. Thanks in Advance, Krishna Emani. _____________________________________ Do you know a company who employs DSP engineers?

If you mean computational complexity in the Computer Science sense, there is a paper in the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory around 1975 or so by Jorn Justesen which says the answer is O(n log^2 n). If you are asking about typical implementations, then n-k multipliers are needed for syndrome computation and for error location and evaluation. The number of multipliers needed for solving the key equation depends on how much time is available. The area-time complexity is O((n-k)^2), and typically, implementations use 4(n-k) or 6(n-k) or 8(n-k) multipliers to solve in (n-k) cycles, (e.g. http://www.ifp.uiuc.edu/~sarwate/pubs/decoder.ps) or 3 or 4 multipliers to solve in 0.5(n-k)^2 clock cycles (which works for high rate codes for which 0.5(n-k)^2 < n, e.g. (255,239) RS code over GF(256) but not (255,223) RS code over GF(256)).

I like Richard Blahut's book "Algebraic Codes for Data Transmission". Can't remember exactly how detailed it is in terms of memory requirements, but he covers the complexity part quite well. Julius

Hi all,
I am doing some research on implementing Reed-Solomon Codes and would like
to read some information about the computational complexity in implementing
Reed-Solomon Codes.

Could anyone site some nice references to reed about this.

I would like to know the details of the number of multipliers needed and
also about the number of memory locations needed to implement and (n,k)
R-S code. 

Thanks in advance,
Krishna Emani.
