Hi all, I would like to have your opignon, which transform is better : Z-transform or Fourier transform for implementation of reed solomon codec? if it will be implemented on a DSP processor, what would be the performance? will I get a high speed with Z- transform or Fourier transform ? Thanks

Finally, one does not "compute" the Z-transform of things, it's more of a notation for analysis and representation. Julius
