  • Publication number: 20100131807
    Abstract: A decoding algorithm for quadratic residue codes applicable to the decoding of all quadratic residue codes is provided. The decoding algorithm employs digital signals to obtain a plurality of known syndromes. These known syndromes are used to calculate a plurality of unknown syndromes. The inverse-free Berlekamp-Massey algorithm is then used to calculate the error polynomial, after which the Chien search algorithm is used to determine the error locations. Adjustments can then be made to the digital signal bits corresponding to the error locations to obtain the correct code.

  • Publication number: 20060277394
    Abstract: A computing system includes a digital signal processor, a storage medium for storing parameter tables, a central processing unit coupled to the digital signal processor and the storage medium, and a shared memory coupled to the digital signal processor and the central processing unit. The digital signal processor stores a data request in the shared memory and issues a request command to the central processing unit when access to the parameter tables is desired. Upon receipt of the request command, the central processing unit reads the data request in the shared memory, accesses the storage medium for retrieving requested data that corresponds to the data request, stores the requested data in the shared memory, and issues a response command to the digital signal processor. The digital signal processor retrieves the requested data from the shared memory upon receipt of the response command from the central processing unit.

  • Publication number: 20050154766
    Abstract: A multimedia processing system includes a selector, an output playback apparatus, a controller, and an A/V signal detector. The selector has a plurality of input ports for receiving multimedia signals and for selecting and outputting one of the multimedia signals according to a selection control signal. The output playback apparatus is used for playing the multimedia signal outputted by the selector in the output playback apparatus. The controller is used for generating the corresponding selection control signals to the selector. The A/V signal detector is used for detecting whether the input ports of the selector have received a newly inputted multimedia signal. When a newly inputted multimedia signal is detected, the A/V signal detector outputs a specific selection signal to the controller, so the controller subsequently generates the corresponding selection control signal to the selector for selecting and outputting the newly inputted multimedia signal to the output playback apparatus.
